It is the intent of the Legislature that the promotion of safety
in the workplace is a legitimate public purpose. In order to
establish a public employee benefit program to encourage safety in
the workplace, the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority is hereby directed to
establish an on-the-job employee safety program which encourages
work unit safety and reduces lost productivity and compensation
costs. In order to promote job safety in work units with
exceptional safety records, the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority is
authorized to expend from monies available in the Oklahoma Turnpike
Authority General Fund so much thereof as may be necessary for the
purpose of recognition awards for presentation to the members of
work units or individual employees with exceptional safety records.
Recognition awards shall consist of distinctive wearing apparel,
service pins, U.S. Savings Bonds, or other appropriate awards, the
value of which shall not exceed Two Hundred Dollars ($200.00) per
employee, which recognize the safety achievement of the work unit or
individual employees.
