B&W Y-12 announced last week that its direct-hire construction team has worked one million hours without a lost-time injury.
A press release said some 285 people—including building trade crafts, non-manual staff, and escorts—worked without a lost-time accident during the 633-day period. The construction team’s last lost workday was in September 2010.
Senior leaders from the National Nuclear Security Administration Production Office, or NPO, and B&W Y‑12 congratulated the workers during a celebration Thursday.
