Onsite Occupational Health & Safety recognized as 2011 Indiana Companies to Watch

Onsite Occupational Health & Safety, Inc. (Onsite OHS) has been recognized as one of the 2011 Indiana Companies to Watch, an awards program presented by the Indiana Economic Development Corporation, its Small Business Development Center network, Purdue University, and the Edward Lowe Foundation.

Onsite OHS is a global provider of clinical, medical, and healthcare services at construction worksites and other settings, including civilian contractor operations in Afghanistan, pipeline construction projects, and hospital construction on a military base. These services include all levels of clinical providers and range from single provider locations to turnkey outpatient clinics. The company is headquartered in Princeton, Indiana.

Forty-three companies from Indiana will be honored as outstanding second-stage companies during the fourth annual Indiana Companies to Watch awards program, to be held on August 25, 2011 in Indianapolis.

Companies to Watch is an awards program that celebrates Indiana's privately held second-stage companies, typically those businesses that are past the startup phase, are considered to be established, and face issues of growth, not survival.

From 2006-2008, only 9.5 percent of Indiana companies were in the second-stage category. However, they generated 37 percent of net new jobs.  

"Onsite OHS has been on a powerful growth curve since it was founded in 2008," said company President and CEO Kyle G. Johnson. "We have grown at an annual rate of nearly 1,000 percent and have created over 100 new jobs in the past year."

Companies to Watch firms must employ between six and 150 full-time equivalent employees, have between $750,000 and $100 million in annual revenue or working capital in place, and demonstrate the intent and capacity to grow based on employee or sales growth, exceptional entrepreneurial leadership, sustainable competitive advantage, or other notable strengths.
