Oro Loma Wins CSRMA Award

On May 16, 2006, Oro Loma was presented with the 2005 CSRMA Loss Control Program of the Year Award. The presentation took place during a Board of Directors meeting.
David Patzer, of the California Sanitation Risk Management Authority, presented the award, which was given in recognition of the District's safe work practices and outstanding safety record. To win the award, Oro Loma completed a comprehensive application and provided information and samples of its safety training procedures, which included no loss for injury for over three years.
The CSRMA is a pool of 58 sanitation districts throughout California, who have joined to provide self-insurance for its member agencies. The organization employs contract management and a full-time loss-control specialist who conducts on-site safety evaluations and regional safety training seminars. By taking a proactive approach to ensuring the well-being of its employees and by combining economic resources, CSRMA-member agencies significantly reduce their insurance expenditures, while providing a workplace that is safe and operating in accordance with all local, state, and federal regulations.
