Electronic Recyclers International Awarded "Golden Gate Partnership Recognition" by Cal/OSHA

(May 21, 2009) - The nation’s leading recycler of electronic waste, Electronic Recyclers, Inc., announced that it has received an official letter of “Golden Gate Recognition” from Cal/OSHA for a successful worksite safety evaluation of both its Fresno facilities. John S. Shegerian, ERI’s Chairman and CEO said, “It is an honor and a privilege to be recognized by the State of California for our employee safety practices. Our people are extremely important to us here – so this is particularly meaningful. We are in the business of properly disposing of electronic waste and the hazards it presents to our environment on a day-to-day basis, but it is also important to always protect our team here so that they are safe in the handling of these materials. We will exhibit our letter of commendation from the State with great pride.”

According to Cal/OSHA, the Golden Gate Partnership Recognition letter is only presented to those companies who work with hazardous materials and receive a full-service on-site evaluation visit by Cal/OSHA. If the visiting Cal/OSHA work safety experts determine that the company has established and maintained an effective injury and illness prevention program as a basis for an efficient safety and health management system, a Golden Gate Partnership Recognition will have been achieved. Cal/OSHA’s visit to ERI’s facility yielded a successful review.
