KAWARTHA LAKES-Kawartha Dairy in Bobcaygeon not only makes delicious ice cream, but it is also a pretty safe place to work according to the 2022 Canada’s Safest Employers guide.
The company was named one of Canada’s Safest Manufacturing Employers and one of Canada’s Safest Employers For Young People.
For 12 years the annual Canada’s Safest Employers Awards (CSEAs) has been recognized as an important independent awards program in the occupational health and safety profession. The awards recognize outstanding health and safety professionals and companies for their achievements, leadership and innovation over the past 12 months.
Kawartha Dairy has been proud to be a 100% Canadian-owned company, still operated by the same family that started it back in the beginning over 80 years ago. Although it has grown tremendously it remains close to its roots, headquartered in Bobcaygeon where it was founded.
Today Kawartha Dairy operates 10 retail stores and supplies a wide range of wholesale customers, from retail outlets to food service establishments and ice cream parlours.
The CSEAs is presented by Canadian Occupational Safety (COS), a resource for occupational health and safety professionals.
The hardware will be handed out at a celebratory awards show on October 20, 2022 and profiled in Canadian Occupational Safety magazine.
