LWCC is pleased to announce the 15 organizations selected for its 2023 Safety Funding Program. Launched in 2022, the program is designed to help encourage and foster a culture of safety and wellbeing in Louisiana’s workforce. This year, the 15 recipients will share over $50,000 in funds to use for safety-related investments and expenses.

“This initiative is just one example of LWCC’s commitment to safeguarding the well-being of workers across our state,” said Damian Simoneaux, LWCC Safety Services Manager. “By providing essential resources and financial support to these policyholders, we aim to catalyze transformational change, creating a future where productivity thrives, accidents are minimized, and every employee returns home safe and unharmed.”

The 2023 Safety Funding Program recipients are:

  • American Industrial Plant Services

“Terrebonne Parish Fire District #7 is proud to be a recipient of this year’s LWCC Safety Funding Program,” shared Terrebonne Fire Chief/District Administrator Amanda G. Thibodeaux. “This program allows us to fund personnel with protective gear that will help protect our firefighters against cancer-causing carcinogens. We are grateful for the support of this program, and organizations like LWCC, that are helping reduce the risks associated with our line of work.”

 


Recipients can utilize the provided funding to implement a safety project or purchase specialized equipment with the goal of increasing workplace safety and reducing the risk of accidents. A member of LWCC’s Safety Services Team will visit the workplace of each recipient to help maximize the use of provided funding and make recommendations on the safety initiative.

Safety Funding applicants were evaluated and selected by a committee that weighed the merit, scope, and impact of the safety programming recipients intend to implement.
