Nightingale Receives WSIB Reward for Strong Commitment to Workplace Safety

01/16/2019

Nightingale is proud to receive a WSIB (Workplace Safety and Insurance Board) reward for 2018. WSIB is awarded to businesses who demonstrate a strong commitment and adherence to workplace safety concerns. It takes injury claims, industry standards, and health and safety maintenance into consideration. This is Nightingale’s second year winning the WSIB award.

The WSIB award is a big deal in the manufacturing industry, where workplace accidents are more likely to occur than other sectors—especially when big firms cut corners in the name of saving costs. At Nightingale, we always value the health and safety of our people more than our bottom line. This is why we continually test our factory and all supervisors to ensure they meet our rigorous health and safety standards. Our factory is free from harmful chemicals or off-gassing that exists in many plants, and is LEED, BIFMA Level 2, Greenguard, and ISO 9001:2008 certified. Because we know that the success and quality of our products stems from the success and happiness of our employees, we are committed to providing a good work-life balance and a high quality of life for all of our workers. Health and safety are of utmost importance to us, and we are proud to have our efforts recognized by being given a WSIB reward for the second year in a row.
