SafetyXChange Honors Delta Air Lines for Corporate Leadership in Safety

Delta Air Lines receives top award from online safety community www.safetyxchange.org.

Stamford, CT (PRWEB) June 30, 2006 -- SafetyXChange, the online community of safety professionals, proudly awarded its first Henshaw Award for Corporate Leadership Saxcie™ to Delta Air Lines.

“Safety success is not measured simply by lost time injury rates and other statistics; it's measured by an intangible quality best described as commitment,” said Glenn Demby, Editor-in-Chief of SafetyXChange. “Companies worthy of The Henshaw Award must embrace health and safety as part of the essential business mission and engage others to do the same. Delta Air Lines has proven itself a worthy recipient and has established itself as an airline health and safety leader.”

At a reception held in Seattle, Washington on June 13, 2006, SafetyXChange also handed out Saxcies™ to winners in four other categories, including Safety Trainer of the Year, Best New Safety Product, Safety Program of the Year and Safety Hero of the Year. Details of winners in all five categories can be found at www.safetyxchange.org.

With the Saxcies™, SafetyXChange has created the only international safety industry awards program that honors both individuals and organizations for outstanding achievement in occupational health and safety. Corporate sponsors of the 2006 Saxcies™ awards include Bongarde Media, Safety Smart! magazine and Safety411.net.
