EMWD has again been recognized for its industry-leading safety efforts.
In August, EMWD was certified for the seventh time by Cal-OSHA as a Voluntary Protection Plan/STAR organization. EMWD is the only public agency in California to earn this status, which it has held continuously since 1999.
The STAR program recognizes public and private organizations that go beyond Cal/OSHA standards for workplace safety and successfully implement best-practices designed to protect the health and safety of employees, contractors and the public.
