SAFETY AWARDS 

The proactive attitude of the men and women in Alpha’s workforce has led to numerous federal and state safety awards.  We are proud of their commitment to our core values and their commitment to “Running Right”.

 

The proactive attitude of Alpha’s workforce has led to numerous federal and state safety awards. We are extremely proud of the hard-working men and women who make these awards possible. Our safety programs are all based on the concept of changing behaviors, continuous improvement, and most importantly, are conceived by the individuals closest to the mining operations because they know their jobs better than anyone else. The safety and welfare of our employees is our first and foremost priority, and our “Running Right” philosophy empowers each employee to carry out our mission of returning home safely at the end of each shift.

 

Alpha takes tremendous pride in our accident-free work sites. The awards exemplify our "Runing Right" philosophy.
