Congratulations to Joel Morrison, who was recognized as Environmental, Health & Safety Professional of the Year for the print industry by the Printing & Imaging Association of MidAmerica. Joel works for Cartamundi USA, a client of Impact Safety. Joel has built a safety program and a safety culture at Cartamundi that is second to none.

Customers of the Dallas plant include the largest providers of card games, collector sports cards, cell phones, software and other products.

Customers routinely visit Cartamundi to conduct EHS audits and Quality System audits. OSHA decided to visit the plant last year.  After two entire days of auditing, they found all program requirements were in place, and issued zero citations.

Joel has seen plenty of challenges and interesting situations over the last nine years at Cartamundi. He coordinates safety programs with multiple temp agencies, leads a first responder team, performs in-house audits, daily gemba walks, and conducts monthly safety classes across multiple shifts. He’s even had the opportunity to utilize his CPR skills on the job.
