About the VPP Star Program from the Washington State Dept. of Labor:
Star is targeted for a company with comprehensive, successful safety and health programs. Companies that are in the forefront of employee protection as indicated by three-year average injury/illness recordable incidence and days away / restricted work activity incidence rates below the national average for their industry, or if a public sector company has an experience factor on your workers' compensation rate below the state average for your risk class, may participate. They must also meet requirements for extensive management systems with strong employee participation in their programs. Star participants are evaluated every three years, although their incident rates and the companies self assessment of their safety and health programs are reviewed annually.
