The John Ash Award is presented to operations that logged a minimum of 1,000,000 worker hours and had the lowest injury-frequency rate. “I’m proud to take this moment to recognize a tremendous achievement— another milestone reached in our commitment to health & safety. Our recent safety record is more than just a statistic; it’s a testament to the unwavering focus, teamwork, and care that each member of the Willow team brings to work every single day.” Dudley Miller, General Manager
As we celebrate this achievement, we remain focused on what truly matters—protecting one another and striving for a safer, stronger workplace every day.
Be Ready for Anything: What to Pack in Your Grab & Go Bag Emergency evacuations can happen unexpectedly, and when they do, you may not have much time to pack your belongings. The Canadian Red Cross has prepared a list of items to pack in your Emergency Grab and Go Bag. Water: make sure you have enough to last at least three days. The rule of thumb is to have two liters of water per person per day. Food: non-perishable food items, such as canned goods, energy bars, and dried fruits. Do not forget to pack a can opener. Medications: daily prescription medications and those that are taken sporadically (EPI pens, inhalers), pain relievers (Tylenol, Advil). Important medical documents and medicalert information. First Aid Kit: with basic medical supplies such as bandages, gauze, antiseptic wipes, and pain relievers. Warm Clothing and Blankets: in case of cold weather. Basic Safety Equipment: flashlight, extra batteries, and a portable radio to stay informed of the situation. Personal Hygiene Items: such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, and hand sanitizer. Cash: debit and credit cards will not work during a power outage or internet interruptions. Important Documents: Driver’s License, Passport, insurance papers, etc. Cell Phone & Charger: to stay connected with family and receive updates about situation. BC Wildfire Service will provide accurate and trustworthy information about the status of the fire and evacuation orders and alerts. www.wildfiresituation.nrs.gov.bc.ca/dashboard When disaster strikes, the time to prepare has passed. Having a “Grab and Go” bag ready will give you a small peace of mind and allow you to focus on your family.
