 Employee-Driven Approach Drives Record Safety Performance at CertainTeed Gypsum Facilities
Valley Forge, PA (PRWEB) April 7, 2010 Through a comprehensive approach driven by more than 1,000 employees, CertainTeed Gypsum has achieved record-breaking safety performance. The company, which has more than 30 facilities throughout North America, has logged nearly 3 million work hours with only one lost-time incident — an event that prevents an employee from reporting for his next shift at work. Overall, CertainTeed Gypsum has seen a 92 percent decrease in the number of injury-related incidents over the past seven years.
According to Dean Read, a millwright and 33-year veteran at the company’s Vancouver plant, a bottom-up approach was the key driver behind a safer work environment. Referred to as “autonomous” safety, the approach empowers each employee to take an active role in decisions made at the plant.
“Autonomous safety means that front-line employees can drive and direct changes that might be needed to create a safer work environment,” says Read. “When everyone is involved in the decision-making process, safety programs work.”
The employee-driven program not only creates an open dialogue throughout all levels of the company, it also includes frequent peer-to-peer observation and assessment of assigned tasks. In addition, safety champions at each facility provide local leadership in addressing risks as well as keeping the best safety practices top-of-mind.
“In traditional safety programs all of the employees are not involved in making facilities safe. Through our approach, we have built practical systems that work,” adds Mike Walsh, director of safety for CertainTeed Gypsum. “Our strong safety culture is a tremendous point of pride and a critical ingredient to the company’s overall sustainability and success.”
CertainTeed Gypsum’s safety performance has received significant praise from parent company, Saint-Gobain. To date, 11 facilities have been inducted into the Millionaires Club, requiring zero lost-time incidents for five consecutive years or 1 million work hours.
Offering a broad range of gypsum and finishing products for interior and exterior needs, CertainTeed Gypsum has served the North American building industry for more than 80 years and is a subsidiary of Saint-Gobain, the world’s leading producer of gypsum products. This, in combination with the full range of affiliate CertainTeed Corporation’s building products, provides architects, contractors, builders and dealers one partner to provide service and support for commercial and residential building projects.
About CertainTeed
A subsidiary of Saint-Gobain, the world’s largest building products company, CertainTeed and its affiliates, including CertainTeed Gypsum, have more than 6,000 employees and more than 65 manufacturing facilities throughout the United States and Canada. In 2009 and 2010, CertainTeed, which is headquartered in Valley Forge, Pa., was named ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, a national award that recognizes environmentally responsible corporations. The group had total sales of approximately $ 3 billion in 2009. http://www.certainteed.com

Millionaire Matchmaker’s Dating Advice, Right on the Money!
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) July 13, 2004 Move over, Messrs. Trump, Cuban, and Branson. Make room for a brand-new, reality advice column, “Ask the Matchmaker! Advice from a Pro,” featuring single, rich, professional men and the parade of women they date.
It’s not a show yet, but it could be!
Lovelorn and heart torn, they seek astute advice from 4M Club’s millionaire matchmaker, Chris Stelmack. Creator of this catchy column, Stelmack says, “Now these men and women can turn to a pro for a fair and objective assessment of their love lives.”
Stelmack further states, as a single professional herself, who better than she can empathize with their tales of woe. Or as she tells it, “I’ve been there, done that. I’ve learned from my own experiences and mistakes and those of associates, friends, and family. I’m also an avid reader of self-help and relationship books. Now I can pass on that wisdom to my readers.”
“Dear Abby,” however, it’s not.
“Ask the Matchmaker!” is a compelling blend of wit, sass, humor, compassion, and practicality; as matchmaker Stelmack packs a lot of chutzpah in her punch.
Here is an excerpt from one of Stelmack’s columns, which you can start reading exclusively at http://www.askthematchmaker.com. Her audience, the twenty-something to forty-something crowd, are tagged either “bachelor” or “bachelorette:”
HI, CHRIS: Last night my girlfriend of only two months crashed my 2-week old Porsche. Well, it was a $ 2,000.00 ding anyway. She has 2-kids, but also a good job, and offered to pay the damages. I can well afford to pay the repair, but she insists on handing over the money. This is causing a huge rift between us, and I don’t know what to do anymore. -Don’t Care About Ding in Dallas
DEAR BACHELOR: O.K., first let me point out, the number “two” is not very lucky for you. So don’t play it in the Lotto! But seriously, everyone should have your problem. Your girlfriend could use the money with two children, I’m sure. Please thank her profusely for her integrity and generosity, but tell her that’s why you have insurance. And if she still insists on doing something, she can pay for the next detail job on your pretty Porsche!
Stelmack further claims, “With so many reality T.V. shows out there focusing on money, marriage, beauty, fear, love, and lustÂprofessional singletons can now write to someone they like and trust.”
Ms. Stelmack is founder and CEO of the 4M Club, a national, elite millioniare matchmaking service, based on the West Coast in Seattle. The 4M Club, http://www.4MClub.com, was built to accommodate single, wealthy men who have a tough time finding “the love of their life,” because of their hectic schedules. Stelmack personally assists in the matchmaking process, while the men who join are provided a CD-ROM with over a couple hundred beautiful, intelligent, eligible career women to consider.
“It’s tough. But somebodyÂs got to do it,” Stelmack grins. “We even had our first marriage only one year after starting 4M Club. It was a long-distance relationship, and I personally introduced them. They got married last April in HawaiiÂonly four months after they metÂand on her birthday, no less.”
Stelmack exclaimed, “Can you believe that? Last I heard, they’re still madly in love!”
So is it possible, “Ask the Matchmaker!” columnist and millionaire matchmaker, Chris Stelmack, will also play cupid to some of her readers along the way?
“Sure, but I can’t promise anyone a wedding in Hawaii on their birthday. I think that was one in a million,” she smiles. “Now if someone can match up the matchmaker, I’ll give them free advice for life!,” Stelmack laughs.
Perhaps life will imitate art for Stelmack, like in the NBC series finale, “Frasier.” He fell in love with his professional matchmakerÂmaybe she’ll land one of her millionaires.
Stay tuned.

MEDIA CONTACT:
“Ask the Matchmaker! Advice from a Pro” sample columns are available on request and are primed for media syndication. Ms. Stelmack is free for interviews. To arrange a meeting, taping, or guest appearance, please contact Chris Stelmack directly at: 206-285-0303.

Millionaire dating and the survival of the rich
Millionaire dating sites might be the right place for you to seek love if you are dreaming of marrying a wealthy millionaire or date a beautiful model.
Jetsetmatch.com is using a sophisticated approach and is not only a dating site. It’s a place for world travellers who seek anything from friendship, travel companionship and marriage. Travelling can be lonely; especially if you travel to a country you’ve never been to before. Instead of sitting alone at your hotel room you could look for a companion on jetsetmatch and look forward to a fun evening out.
Jetsetmatch.com is a non-profit 100% free non-profit and exclusive dating site for millionaires and beautiful women. To join you have to be either successful or very beautiful, but that’s not all. “We want sophisticated, well educated, friendly and stylish singles to join our site” “But we want a relaxed non snobbish attitude and people who are open-minded” the founder claims.
Many millionaire dating site today are build and created by men for men, and obviously by people who thinks less of women. Women should be respected and treated with silk gloves. Women are not property and there are a lot of successful women out there who are looking for love.” The founder started the site on her spare time. “I was sick and tired of companies trying to make you pay to join their dating site when claiming it’s 100% free on the main page and in their advertising. I would never pay to join a VIP club or millionaire dating site. It’s okay to be selective when it comes to accepting members, but I don’t find it very exclusive to have to pay to meet men. It’s like being invited to a date and then having to pay for your own dinner”. She also noticed that something was very strange when she got 20 emails from different members from a site when she hadn’t even uploaded a picture or written anything about herself. “ I think many of those sites that force you to pay create fake profiles to tempt people to pay, because if you don’t pay you can’t contact the member who contacted you”. The owner took action and quickly created the site jetsetmatch.com: a free millionaire dating site and VIP community for wealthy and sophisticated people who can afford to enjoy the jet set lifestyle. The site might not be a million dollar investment but it’s simple and with a relaxed and genuine attitude. “I thought I could always improve it with time if there’s a need. I tried as hard as I could and it’s the quality of the people who join that is important. I rather have fewer members that meets the requirements then a bunch of people who don’t” the founder states.
The founder claims that there is nothing taboo about looking to marry a millionaire. “If your looking for love online, why not aim for the best and see what happens. It’s great to fall in love with a plumber, but it’s even greater to fall in love with an ambitious sport star or a CEO of a big company. It might not be the most important thing when it comes down to love and relationship, but sharing the same lifestyle makes it so much easier long term, and you never know where you are going to meet Mr Darcy do you? It’s natural that women prefer rich men and millionaire dating. Most women want a man she can be safe with, intelligent and someone who is successful and who can help to provide for the family. A successful man is also more admirable because what they have achieved. According to psychologists’ and sociologists it’s natural that every young girl is dreaming about finding a rich prince who can pick her up on a white horse. Men on the opposite do not care much about wealth and success when they look for a partner. Men look for beauty. No matter how much some people like to criticize people who are members of millionaire dating clubs as being shallow, it’s all come down to human nature in the end. The fight for survival or the survival of the rich? Most women envy Donald Trumps Melania and Tiger Woods Elin Nordengren. That’s a fact. Men and women who criticize women who are looking for a successful and beautiful partner tend to be jealous or believe that they themselves do not fit the criteria. Otherwise why bother. No one would dare criticizing a guy looking for a hot girl to bring home from the club. And the affluent men tend to find very attractive women. What right do men have to criticize women? It’s not like men rule the world anymore. LA girl, 22 years old, journalist student.

Rich Bachelors Get the Girl and Car with Millionaire Matchmaking Club’s Promo
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) June 3, 2009 Now through 2009, the 4M Club are throwing in a Tesla Roadster electric sports car, custom-built for the client. If the bachelor doesn’t need the car (but still wants the girl), the matchmaking fee is negotiable.
Why a car promotion?
Says 4M’s owner, Chris Stelmack, “I drive a Prius with all the bells and whistles, but when I saw the all-electric Tesla, it blew me away. I thought, why not do something nice for the client and help them save the environment, too!”
Qualified bachelors begging for an extraordinary matchmaking search opt for the 4M Club’s established Rolls Royce plan. Much like hiring a private chef or personal trainer, these guys want their own exclusive matchmaking pro.
One-on-one matchmaking isn’t new. It’s been around for years and is finally socially acceptable, especially in the advent of Internet dating.
4M’s Rolls Royce plan is for the multimillionaire bachelor tired of hanging out and spending holidays alone. He’s looking for the love-of-his-life, but doesn’t have time or know where to find her. He doesn’t date co-workers anymore for obvious reasons, so it’s tough finding the soul mate he craves.
He’s discovered dabbling online is labor intensive with little or no rewards. Most have found Internet dating counter-productive and quickly give up.
Enter 4M Club, an eight-year-old private matchmaking club for the rich — they scour the planet for a Rolls Royce client, until a perfect match is found.
For a cool quarter million dollars, the Rolls Royce program affords clients the luxury of working directly with 4M’s founder and relationship expert, Christine Stelmack. Rolls Royce clients are one of a handful she takes on during the year, on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Stelmack states, “I want to work with the most sincere of the bunch, even if he’s 72-years-old.” She quickly adds, “As long as the older client isn’t looking for a 25-year-old, we’ll be in good shape.”
The 4M Club’s headquarters are in downtown Seattle, but interview onsite in the client’s own city or wherever they wish. 4M works with clients throughout the U.S. (and accepts clients worldwide, too, if time permits.)
“Anything can be negotiated. If an interested bachelor from abroad really needs our help, we’ll pull all the guns out. As long as it doesn’t take away from someone else,” declares Stelmack.
The 4M Club, known for serving a very picky clientele, gets the job done and enjoys a healthy mix of engagements, marriages and long-term relationships.
Stelmack asserts, “When a client looks me sincerely in the eye and says, ‘Wow, I’m marrying one of these gals,’ they’ve gone and done it.”
