Becky named officer in home safety group

The Home Safety Council (HSC) has announced new leadership for its Board of Directors, including in the #3 slot of secretary-treasurer, Walter w. Becky II, President of Morton Salt. Said HSC:

Mr. Becky is President of Morton Salt, the company he has served since 1974. In 1999 when Rohm and Haas purchased Morton Salt, Mr. Becky was elected Vice President and a member of the Leadership Council. Under his direction, Morton Salt has made off-the-job safety education to company employees a top priority nationwide. Mr. Becky is also on the boards of the Morton Arboretum and the Network for Sustained Elimination of Iodine Deficiency.

"My association with the Home Safety Council continues to be one of the most rewarding affiliations of my career," says Chief Dennis Compton, Chair of the Home Safety Council's Board of Directors. "It's an honor to have
been elected Chair of this exceptional organization and I look forward to working with the outstanding staff and Board members as we continue to advance the Home Safety Council's critical life safety mission."

Well said. Unsaid is the fact that Morton Salt is no slouch for on-the-job safety either. Morton Salt is prominent among salt companies for its leadership in safety and well represented among award-winners in the Salt Institute's Safety Recognition Program.

Congratulations!
