WAG's Indiana-based return center receives VPP Star award recertification

DEERFIELD, Ill. — Walgreens said its Valparaiso, Ind.-based return center has been recertified with a Voluntary Protection Program Star award from the Indiana Department of Labor.

The VPP Star award, which was presented to the return center by IDOL deput commissioner Jeffrey Carter on Thursday, marks IDOL's highest designation for workplace safety and recognizes businesses that show excellence in occupational safety and health, Walgreens said.

“This award is a clear example of our commitment to the well-being of our team members and our work together to go above and beyond required standards,” Walgreens return center manager Teri Myers said. “I couldn’t be prouder of our team’s accomplishment and look forward to continuing our leadership in this area for years to come.”
