Aspen Equipment announced it has hired Ron Lamprecht as director of safety, compliance and development. Lamprecht’s construction experience working with multiple location companies and OSHA entities is a great match for Aspen Equipment—with headquarters in Bloomington, Minn. and branches in Iowa and Nebraska. Lamprecht explains, “My continuous safety plan will reach across departments to encourage communications, engage employees, and promote safety in every facet of Aspen’s operation. I will use an interactive training style to encourage safety dialogue and continually promote employee development. It’s my experience that people learn best when training reminds and reinforces what was learned in previous sessions, so I plan to implement ongoing training until it becomes engrained into employees’ thought processes for a safer and more productive work environment.”
