The honorees were Darren Alsum, Danne Bubolz, Steven Gust, Jerry Knutson, Scott LaMay, and Dennis Reinke. Beth O’Quinn, SC&RA Vice President, said, “Accumulating such a safety record is an impressive accomplishment and is deserving of industry recognition. This milestone is indicative of company and individual commitment to safety.”
Dawes’ 48-state authority trucking division, DST, earned two safety awards: the Transportation Group Zero Accidents Award and the 2013 Transportation Safety Contest Winner Award. “The SC&RA Awards program recognizes the commitment your company has to the industry and to its employees,” said Douglas Ball, SC&RA Vice President, Transportation. “These are awards to be truly proud of.”
