The APGA Safety Contest is an annual award given out to APGA public natural gas system members for their dedication to keeping their employees safe every day on every job. All APGA public gas system members are eligible to enter this contest.
Public gas systems are divided into five groups based on annual number of man-hours worked:
• Group A = 8,000 or less man-hours
• Group B = 8,001 to 18,000 man-hours
• Group C = 18,001 to 38,000 man-hours
• Group D = 38,001 to 70,000 man-hours
• Group E = 70,001 or more man-hours
The winners of each group will be calculated based on total man-hours worked and the number of recordable injury or illness cases from January 1 to December 31 of the 2020 calendar year. You can find the Safety Contest Rules
here.
The Safety Contest will be open through Friday, May 7. You can apply online at
