The Greater Greenville Chamber of Commerce recognized Carolina Safety Consultants as Small Business of the Month for March 2009. Each month the Greenville Chamber recognizes a local small business for its accomplishments by honoring it with the Small Business of the Month Award. David J.

Greenville-based Carolina Safety Consultants (CSC) provides environmental, health and safety training and consulting services to small-to-mid-sized companies throughout the Carolinas.

“We are proud to offer a service that has the potential to make a real difference in the operations of the company or organization that hires us. One of our most important roles is to identify possible weaknesses in their safety programs — before they encounter a problem,” noted De Vita.
