The Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health (ADOSH) has awarded Vantage West Credit Union its Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program (SHARP) award in recognition of their exemplary safety and health management systems. It joins 23 other companies in Arizona with this distinction.

To qualify for the SHARP award, ADOSH evaluates an employer’s overall workplace safety and health efforts, including written programs, injury and illness rates and how integrated safety programs are with the day-to-day work environment. ADOSH conducts a full workplace inspection including extensive employee interviews.

Vantage West Credit Union was recognized with a plaque to display the commitment it has displayed toward safety in the workplace.
