Visterra President and CEO Alan T. Handley stated that both customers and employees are more inclined to work with organizations that cultivate safe workplaces and view safety as an ongoing commitment, not merely a compliance requirement, upheld through the personal accountability of every employee.

"Our steadfast commitment to safety-demonstrated through our comprehensive policies, training initiatives, and consistent daily operations-is integral to our core company values. We are privileged to once again be recognized by NALP for our safety accomplishments across all platform companies," Handley said. "We will continue to promote a strong safety culture that prioritizes the well-being of every employee, and we sincerely value the collective dedication of our field staff, supervisors, and management teams whose contributions are essential to these achievements."

Visterra demonstrates a strong commitment to safety through initiatives such as weekly executive safety meetings, safety circle discussions, AI-powered vehicle cameras, comprehensive CPR and first aid training for all field staff, OSHA compliance training, and strict use of appropriate Personal Protective Equipment. Additionally, Visterra acknowledges outstanding safety practices by recognizing Safety All-Stars from each partner company every quarter, based on nominations from supervisors and executive management for exemplary safety performance.

Companies entering NALP's Safety Recognition AwardsProgram are required to submit a copy of their OSHA 300A Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses report and their year-end vehicle insurance claims summary report. Each company is evaluated on the number of accidents, number of days that employees are away from work, and number of employee injuries and illnesses. In addition, a checklist was used to rate the company's complete safety program.
