2009-2010 SHARP Recipients

Florida's Blood Centers Earns First SHARP Recognition

Workplace safety is critical when providing blood and blood products to 70 hospitals and healthcare facilities throughout Florida. And at Florida's Blood Centers (FBC), one of the state's largest independent blood centers, the organization’s Orlando headquarters' workplace safety program is an award-winning one.

"We are committed from the top down to making safety a part of our culture, not just our favorite slogan," says Aneta Lagos, safety coordinator at JELD-WEN's Window Division, located in Venice. The worldwide manufacturer of windows and doors has five facilities in Florida. This year, their Venice location earned a SHARP award for the first time.
