ARAMARK Earns 2009 Teddy Award
By Ken Ancona, SVP, Managing Director, RSG
RSG customer ARAMARK received a prestigious award at the National Workers' Compensation and Disability Management Conference, held Nov. 18-19 in Chicago. Our customer won the 2009 Theodore Roosevelt Workers' Compensation and Disability Management Award—commonly known as the Teddy Award—in the for-profit category, an acknowledgement of the excellence of its workers' compensation program.
According to Risk & Insurance magazine, which sponsors the award, ARAMARK has reduced injury frequency by 49 percent and cut lost time nearly in half as well, while at the same time increasing its global workforce to 260,000 employees in 22 countries. ARAMARK, based in Philadelphia, provides food services, facilities management, and uniform and career apparel around the world. It was ranked No. 1 in its industry in Fortune magazine's 2009 "World's Most Admired Companies."
RSG's Mahwah, N.J., office, which has been servicing ARAMARK since 1992, consolidates multiple data sources, including international information, and delivers high-end analytical reporting. ARAMARK joins other RSG customers that have been honored in the Teddy Award program, including 2008 recipient Jeld-Wen Holding Inc. and 2007 recipient Houston Independent School District.
