National Truck Driver Appreciation Week 21′

Join us in celebrating National Truck Drivers Appreciation Week September 12-18, 2021! We’ve been tested to our limits over the last 18 months and this week we celebrate those that have been there through it all, delivering the goods and services needed to keep our country moving forward. From the food served at our tables to the vaccines and emergency supplies that have kept us safe and healthy, truck drivers show up to keep delivering vital supplies to our homes and businesses, even with risk to themselves.

Founded in 1998 by the American Trucking Associations, National Truck Driver Appreciation Week highlights why tucking is critical to our nation’s economy. Thank you to all the hard working men and women drivers who work hard day in and day out! Here are some of the pictures taken during this years celebration across Infra-Metals locations. NTDAW2021 Photo Album

Summer Food Drive with Feeding Tampa Bay

Our Tampa Plant recently participated in a Cereal for Summer Food Drive with Feeding Tampa Bay.

Our Tampa employees heard the plea from this Organization to help with the never ending fight for childhood food insecurity. During the summer months, 1 in 4 children are food insecure.  They needed the support from the local community, more than ever, as they are not guaranteed free or reduced meals that they have grown to depend on in school. Once our employees heard this heartfelt message, they needed to act quickly. Our employees brought in boxes of cereal, instant oatmeal, pop tarts, and bags of chips.

 

 

We are a thriving company that wishes to give back to our community for which we live, work and play in. Infra-Metals Tampa are proud of their employees and their giving hearts!!!

Tampa Participates In Second Chance Job Fair hosted by Grace Family Church

Florida Division Has Operated Two Years Accident Free!!!

We are pleased to announce that on March 6, 2021, our Infra-Metals Florida Division employees, have worked 2 Years Accident Free!!! Our employees have worked over 117,640 hours and shipped 159,280 tons without injury.  This is an extraordinary accomplishment!

When we asked our employees, what keeps them motivated to work safely, their answer was to go home to their families in one piece, every day and for their fellow workers to do the same. When we asked our employees, what their favorite safety quote was, many of them answered “Safety, Quality, Production”. Finally, when we asked our employees, what can we do better as a company in regards to safety, their answer was that they wanted us to continue encouraging them to work Safely. They wanted us to continue to provide them with the tools necessary to work safely.

As we celebrate and honor our employees who have reached this milestone, we all recognize that they must continue to work safely, as their work is far from being done. We are so proud of our employees and their similar mindset of wanting to live in the culture of Safety First.  As a company, we want our employees and their families to know, that our mission is to ensure the safety of all our workers, as they are our Number One Priority!

These pictures are of our employees who have worked hard to be accident free over the last 2 years and counting.

Congratulations and a job well done Tampa!
