THE DAVEY BULLETIN
JUNE IS NATIONAL SAFETY MONTH
June is one of the busiest months of the
year for green industry professionals,
which is why it's an important month to
reinforce and promote safe practices.
It's also why the National Safety
Council, celebrates June as National
Safety Month.
This month Davey employees can look
for reminders about the importance –
and the "why"– of working safely on
DaveyConnect, on our social media
pages, in the pages of this issue of
the Bulletin, and elsewhere throughout
the company.
What's your safety "why?" Why do
you work safely each day? Share your
safety stories with us via email at
bulletin@davey.com.

SERVICE AWARDS MOVING
TO DAVEYCONNECT
One change is coming to the Bulletin
this issue.
Historically, each issue celebrates
employees' service anniversaries in
five-year increments starting with
their five-year anniversary.
The Bulletin will continue to celebrate
employees with 25 years or more of
service during their anniversary month
that coincides with the publication
issue. But service awards of 20 years
or fewer will now be recognized on
DaveyConnect, starting with May and
June 2024 anniversary dates.
If you have not updated your
DaveyConnect app to the new version,
go to the app store and do that now
so you can log on and celebrate your
teammates' service anniversaries.
