Which VPP logo to use?

We have many customers ask about the VPP logos; which one to use, what is the new one, etc. So, below is a brief history of each.

Logo A represents the old OSHA VPP Logo.
Logo B (the new OSHA version) and Logo C (the VPPPA version) represent the two current VPP logos that are recognized and used by most sites. OSHA allows sites to use either of these. Other versions of these can be found for sites that have been given the Star, Merit, or Demonstration status; as well as sites that have been re-approved.
This information does not pertain to state-plan sites (for example California - Logo D) or DOE sites (Logo E), because they have their own logos to represent their cooperative programs.

LOGOS:
A) 1ST OSHA VPP LOGO (used until 2004)


B) 2ND OSHA VPP LOGO (2004 - PRESENT)


C) VPPPA VPP LOGO


D) CAL/OSHA LOGO


E) DOE/VPP LOGO

Gate Give-Away Themes & Product Ideas

Happy New Year! Now that the new year has started, if we haven't already, I'm sure most of us are busy planning out our new year. So when trying to come up with a better way to get across a quick safety message, consider doing a gate give-away! It allows for personal interaction, motivates employees, and gives them a little something to remember the message by.

Welcome!

I would first like to thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.

I decided to create this blog because many of our customers (safety professionals) call and ask for ideas to help them with safety slogans, safety events, award ideas, VPP celebrations, etc. and I thought this would be a cool way for me and customers alike to share this information. In this blog, I look forward to providing news, information, and ideas on many different topics that I think may be of use to safety professionals. Please feel free to comment and share your own personal experiences or best practices with other safety professionals.

As of now, my goal is to create one new post a quarter. It may become more frequent depending on interest and participation.

If there is a particular topic you would like for me to tackle, you may email that to me and I will be happy to review it for future posting.

Thanks again for stopping by and I look forward to your participation in this blog!
