Acton on a goal

Eighteen months ago, employees of the Acton, MA, Post Office set a goal to become a nationally recognized worksite for employee safety.

Their goal recently became reality. The facility earned the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA’s) Voluntary Protection Programs Star status — OSHA’s highest honor.

The Acton Post Office is the fourth postal facility in the Massachusetts District to earn the prestigious award, join­ing the Westborough Northern Hub and Spoke Program, Springfield Logistics and Distribution Center and Tewksbury Post Office.
