Make Every Day Safe

By Wes Crampton, MedSpeed President

As the leader in same-day logistics, we stand committed to the safety and well-being of every member of our team. Today, I am proud to announce a new safety initiative, aimed at safeguarding not only our MedSpeeders and our customer’s critical deliveries, but also community members in every city we serve.

In an industry where precision and efficiency are paramount, ensuring the highest standards of safety isn’t just a priority; it’s our responsibility. To that end, our new safety initiative, Make Every Day Safe or MEDS, launched earlier this year.

The purpose of the MEDS initiative is to:

1. Build a culture of safety while working to reduce accidents, and workplace injuries.

MEDS includes monthly training sessions that are designed to empower our team with the necessary knowledge and skills to identify potential hazards and respond effectively. By prioritizing ongoing education in safety procedures, MedSpeed endeavors to cultivate a vigilant and safety-conscious workforce and culture.

Another aspect of our safety program is our Driving Safety Scorecard initiative. This innovative tool allows us to closely monitor and evaluate the safety performance of our Logistics Service Representatives (LSRs), our term for our drivers. By tracking key metrics such as adherence to speed limits, harsh breaking and tight cornering, we can identify areas for improvement and commend exemplary behavior.

2. Recognize MedSpeeders that put safety at the forefront of what they do each day.

We firmly believe in acknowledging and rewarding our LSRs for their dedication to safely delivering health. Safety incentive programs serve as powerful motivators, encouraging active engagement in initiatives and, in turn, fostering a safer environment for all.

Through this program, we are conducting quarterly and annual safety raffles to motivate our MedSpeeders to prioritize safety. To qualify, LSRs must complete their monthly training on time, which emphasizes workplace and driving safety, and exhibit safe driving behaviors.

This program embodies our dedication to excellence and underscores our promise to fostering a workplace culture where safety is non-negotiable.
