Averitt has been named to the Tennessee Bureau of Workers’ Compensation’s REWARD Honor Roll, marking the second consecutive year the company has earned a place among the state’s top employers for return-to-work practices.
Only six companies across Tennessee received the designation, which recognizes employers that
prioritize recovery and resilience by helping associates return to meaningful work following a workplace
injury.
“Averitt’s focus has always been on supporting our associates in every phase of their career journey,”
said Barry Blakely, president and chief operating officer at Averitt. “Being named to the REWARD Honor
Roll for the second year in a row reflects the effectiveness of our return-to-work approach and the care
we take in helping associates recover and move forward.”
Averitt’s commitment to return-to-work best practices is rooted in the understanding that timely,
supported recovery helps associates maintain physical, emotional, and financial well-being. By
facilitating a safe and structured return to work, the company reinforces its long-standing dedication to
associate health and stability.
