Manufacturer shares VPP story
Some companies may be reluctant to invite OSHA into a plant voluntarily but Mike DeSoto, chief operating officer of MI Windows and Doors, said the end result is "very worth it."
DeSoto spoke at the recent American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) 2018 Fall Conference about the need to implement a culture of workplace safety. He and Allison Mendibles, regional human resources manager/safety manager for the company, shared their insights about one of MI Windows and Doors plant locations in Prescott Valley, Arizona, which earned the prestigious Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) star last year.
