Washington, D.C. -The American Bakers Association Safety Recognition Program is honored to award 22 Member companies across 160 facilities for their effective and successful safety programs in 2023.
“It is imperative that the industry’s current and future employees understand our commitment to employee safety. The awards that will be on display in these ABA member facilities are one more step to accomplish that, and I hope we see even more facilities represented in 2025,” said Jennifer Colfelt, Vice President of Operations and Membership, of the American Bakers Association (ABA) during the awards ceremony at ABA’s 2024 Convention in Scottsdale, AZ.

Created in 2016, ABA’s Safety Recognition Award recognizes Member facilities’ safety performance and implementation of effective safety and health management systems. The program has increased workplace safety awareness and emphasizes the importance of employee safety in the baking and allied industries. These efforts to develop strong safety programs also prove to be an investment in the company’s financial health as well.
Participation in the program continues to grow annually, with the 2023 awards surpassing prior year by eight facilities.
Below are the 160 locations which have achieved a high level of safety performance as an ongoing effort to reduce work related injuries and illnesses:
