SWANA adds to affinity program

The Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA), Silver Springs, Maryland, made two additions to its growing affinity program, Blue Ridge Services Inc. and Eureco Health Solutions.

Both companies have been vetted by SWANA’s Affinity Program Committee and have earned the distinction of being a SWANA preferred provider.

Blue Ridge Services, a consulting firm specializing in solid waste operations, management and training located in Mariposa, California, will give SWANA members access to resources and training on solid waste safety, efficiency and more.

“We have had a long and fruitful relationship with SWANA, and our continued partnership to bring safety training to the industry is very important to us,” says Neal Bolton, president of Blue Ridge Services. “We initially developed these safety resources because we saw a great lack of nuts-and-bolts, industry-specific training. With the increasing risk of fatalities and injuries, we feel there is a growing and urgent need for comprehensive safety training.”

Eureco Health Solutions, a company devoted to promoting workplace health located in Houston, offers SWANA members discounted access to commercial driver-focused Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) testing.

“Eureco Health Solutions is excited to join the SWANA Affinity Program and is enthusiastic about engaging with the SWANA community to share expertise in employee health and risk management,” says Aaron Hoffman, Eureco Health Solutions’ managing director. “We are proud to be supporting SWANA's goal to promote health and safety best practices in the waste management industry.”

“SWANA’s award-winning safety program takes another important step forward through the addition of Eureco and Blue Ridge to our affinity program,” states David Biderman, SWANA’s executive director and CEO. “Both companies offer important products and services that waste haulers and governmental entities need to keep their workers safe.”
