RR Donnelley Printing Operation Recertified for OSHA's VPP Star Status

CHICAGO—June 18, 2013—R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company announced today that its Roanoke, VA, production facility has been recertified with Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) Star Status by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

The Star certification is the highest that OSHA grants and is awarded only after a comprehensive on-site evaluation and confirmation that the facility's injury and illness rates are below the industry average nationwide. RR Donnelley's safety performance outperforms the industry average by more than 62 percent, as measured by the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Recordable Case Rates.

"Roanoke is one of four RR Donnelley facilities that have pursued and achieved VPP Star Status," said Michael Manzella, senior vice president of environmental, health, safety and quality. "Maintaining injury-free workplaces requires constant diligence and awareness. Our employees do an exceptional job of following and enhancing the processes that guide us as we strive to provide a safe and healthy workplace."

Dan Knotts, RR Donnelley's COO also added that achieving VPP Star Status is a significant accomplishment, but the recertification process can be even more demanding because it requires demonstration of continuous improvement. "This recertification reflects our employees' commitment to exceptional safety standards. We regard workplace safety as the first and most important measure of operational excellence and we are delighted that our employees' efforts and performance have been recognized with this important certification."
