CHILDRESS – Safety: Mission Zero is just one of the mottos at the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), and certainly one of the most important.
At TxDOT, mission zero means; zero injuries, zero incidents and zero fatalities.
Approximately 200 employees in the 13-county Childress District were recently honored for their outstanding driving record and no injury record at the annual TxDOT Safety Awards Banquet.
“Safety has always our top priority,” said Marty Smith, Childress District Engineer. “Our goal every year is to work 365 days without a single injury or incident. When an employee does that, we think it deserves notice, so we have a safety awards event to say congratulations and thank you.”
Texas Department of Transportation Childress District Donley County Maintenance section employees receiving an award in years combined for safe operator and no injury in 2016 include: Bob Spillers, one year; Brian Miller, 22 years; Derek Shields, eight years; Eloy Camacho, four years; Fu Benavidez, 45 years; Nathan Judd, two years; Randy Crump, 20 years; Roy Bertrand, one year; and Clay Christopher, 22 years.
