Bill Morgan, president of Sheboygan Falls-based Johnsonville Sausage LLC, will be honored as the 14th inductee into the Wisconsin Safety Hall of Fame.
The 73rd annual Wisconsin Safety & Health Conference and Exposition is scheduled to take place Tuesday and Wednesday in the Wisconsin Dells at the Kalahari Resort and Convention Center.
“The safety culture at Johnsonville Sausage is second to none,” Morgan said. “And while we’re proud of the strong safety culture we’ve established, our challenge is not to be complacent with our safety results. We’ll continue to challenge every aspect of the business to achieve zero injuries. We have a moral obligation to provide a safe work environment for all of our members and a cultural expectation that every member has personal accountability for quality and safety.”
