Total Safety Receives Three Prestigious Nominations
(BUSINESS WIRE)
Total Safety, the leading global provider of integrated safety solutions
and services, received three highly coveted award nominations. The
safety services company was nominated for two
Houston Business Journal
awards: the 2009 Best CFO Awards and their Healthcare Heroes Awards. The
Houston chapter of the American Marketing Association (AMA) nominated
Total Safety for their 2009 Crystal Awards.
2009 Best CFO Awards
The Houston Business Journal's third annual Best CFOs of the Year
recognizes financial professionals who, quoting the Houston Business
Journal, keep "track of the American Dream." Total Safety's Chief
Financial Officer, Dennis Turnipseed, was nominated in the Mid-Cap
Private Company category along with 4 other finalists.
The Houston-area publication recognized Turnipseed, who has worked with
Total Safety for 2 years, for his outstanding performance in his role as
a corporate financial steward.
"I speak for the entire team when I say we are very proud of Dennis and
sincerely honored by this prestigious nomination. We at Total Safety
have always known of Dennis' extraordinary contributions to our team.
Now, I'm pleased that his peers have an insight into that as well," said
David E. Fanta, Total Safety President and CEO.
Healthcare Heroes Awards
The Houston Business Journal's first annual Healthcare Heroes
Awards honor those who serve, innovate and save lives. Total Safety's
Remote/Offshore Paramedic Bryan Hofmann was the only nominee in the
First Responder category.
Hofmann's diverse background includes serving as a combat medic in Iraq,
working on a peacekeeping mission in Kosovo and coordinating the
treatment of over 30,000 people at the New Orleans Superdome during
Hurricane Katrina.
"There is no question that countless people have benefited from Bryan's
selfless service in the military and civilian worlds. At Total Safety he
continues his unwavering dedication by always putting his patients first
to provide expert medical care to offshore oil & gas workers who would
otherwise have no access to medical treatment," said Paul Tyree, Total
Safety Vice President U.S. Operations.
2009 Crystal Awards
The Houston chapter of the AMA recognizes companies who produce and
achieve positive, measurable and definable marketing campaigns in 2008.
Total Safety was nominated in the Magazine Campaign category for its
Promise Badge campaign.
Throughout the year-long advertising campaign, the Promise Badge, which
was chosen because of its association with honor, trust and power, was
incorporated into specific safety products; hence, it became the body of
a fire extinguisher, the face of a breathing mask, the sensor on a gas
detector and the compartment of a Swiss army knife.

The award ceremonies for each of the respective nominations are on the
following dates.
The Healthcare Heroes Awards May 20, 2009
Best CFO Awards May 22, 2009
Crystal Awards May 29, 2009
