March 5, 2026

The Texas Department of Insurance, Division of Workers’ Compensation (DWC) has recognized Pond & Company with a Lone Star Safety Award renewal for demonstrating an ongoing commitment to workplace safety and health at its Baytown facility.

Pond & Company, an engineering, architecture, and consulting firm, employs 30 workers at the site. The company promotes a proactive safety culture that encourages employee involvement, open communication, and continuous improvement. Employees actively identify hazards, report concerns, and recommend corrective actions to help prevent injuries and illnesses before they occur.

This recognition represents the company’s third Lone Star Safety Award. Pond & Company first earned recognition at its former Pasadena location in 2018 and renewed the award in 2022 before relocating operations to Baytown. This continued achievement reflects a consistent, companywide commitment to protecting workers and maintaining effective safety and health practices across locations.

The Lone Star Safety Program honors Texas employers that maintain exemplary health and safety programs that serve as models for others. To qualify, employers must maintain injury rates below the national average, have no recent work-related fatalities, and demonstrate an effective, ongoing safety program.
