Keystone Wood Specialties gains OSHA renewal

Keystone Wood Specialties, a wholesale wood products manufacturer in Lancaster, Pa., received re-certification from OSHA’s Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program. Approval was increased from two to a three-year term through March 2018.

Keystone has been certified since 2003. Certified companies are exempt from scheduled OSHA inspections for the certification period. However, interim reports are an ongoing requirement, according to the company.

The SHARP program is available to American companies with less than 250 employees and is focused on the safety status of the physical plant; a thorough program of employee safety training; maintaining a below-industry injury recordable status and a comprehensive, written safety plan that includes maintaining a certified safety committee of participating employees.

Previously, Keystone was recognized as one of America’s safest companies by Occupational Hazards Magazine and received the Governor’s Award for Safety Excellence from the State of Pennsylvania.
