Tim Berry, Indiana Auditor of State

Elected Indiana's 54^th State Auditor in November of 2006, taking office January 1, 2007, Tim Berry serves as the Chief Financial Officer for the State of Indiana. Auditor Berry is a committed fiscal conservative who keeps taxpayers first in recognizing that they deserve a government that is equipped to do more with less. As Allen County treasurer, Berry cut budget expenditures to the lowest cost per capita of any Treasurer in Indiana. During his tenure as State Treasurer, Tim returned 12% of his budget appropriation back to the state general fund. Since taking office as State Auditor, he has cut office expenditures 17% to levels consistent with year 2000 spending.

Under the leadership of Tim Berry, in late fall of 2009 Indiana successfully implemented a fully integrated financial system – the first of its kind for all of Indiana government, providing more efficient and transparent government. Additionally, Indiana's annual financial reports have received the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting – the highest standard available – from the Government Finance Officers Association each year of Berry's tenure as State Auditor. Berry's initiatives in financial education and literacy have earned him recognition from the National Association of Government Defined Contribution plans. During his inauguration speech Berry said, "As Auditor we won't often make headlines, but we will continue to listen – continue to lead – continue to make a difference for all Hoosiers". This system transformed the ability of the public to see how their money is being spent through the Indiana Transparency Portal, which can be found at www.in.gov/itp. People can view items as diverse as employee salaries and local government financial records.

Prior to his election as State Auditor, Tim served two terms as Indiana's Treasurer. In that role, Berry earned a record .7 billion for Hoosier taxpayers through the prudent investment of state dollars. Berry led the effort to obtain favorable legislation providing tax incentives for families saving for college through the CollegeChoice 529 plan. Through this 20% tax credit on contributions, more families will be financially prepared to meet the cost of higher education. Through his leadership as chair of the Wireless 911 Advisory Board, Indiana was recognized as a national leader for wireless 911 network technology.

Tim Berry's leadership has been recognized by many in Indiana and across the country. Berry was awarded the 2005 Jesse Unruh award, given to the nation's most outstanding state treasurer. Additionally, he was presented the 2003 Presidential Award of Excellence by the Association of Public Safety Officials, and the recipient of the American Heart Association's "Heartsaver Award". Berry served as President of the National Association of State Treasurers and Chair of the National College Savings Plans Network. His efforts led to recognition by the State of Israel Bonds in 2003 and the Indianapolis Business Journal recognized Tim with their "40 under 40" designation in 2000.

As Auditor, Tim serves as the Chief Financial Officer for the State of Indiana. As CFO his most important obligations involve accounting for all of the State's funds, overseeing and distributing Local Governments tax distributions, paying the State's bills and paying the State's employees. Tim also serves as administrator to the Indiana Deferred Compensation Plan working to help secure a better retirement future for all State workers. Tim and his staff are committed to providing quality service to everyone who conducts business with this office.

New York, New York (PRWEB) December 21, 2011

A construction worker is alive following a scaffold accident in Kips Bay.

Thankfully, the worker used adequate safety precautions, said New York construction accident lawyer David Perecman, founder of The Perecman Firm, one of New York construction accident law firms. Something as simple as a safety harness and rope can make all the difference in the event of a scaffold accident in New York.

The construction worker dangled six stories above the sidewalk, held by only his safety harness and a rope. He had lost his balance and toppled over the edge of a suspended scaffold, reported the New York Post. (12/13/2011).

Construction site falls account for the greatest number of fatalities in the construction industry, according to the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA).

In 2010, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that 751 construction workers died on the job, with 35 percent of those fatalities resulting from falls.

Nearly 2.3 million construction workers often work on scaffolds, reported OSHA. Protecting these workers from scaffold-related construction accidents would prevent an estimated 4,500 injuries and 50 fatalities annually.

Fall arrest systems, safety nets, guardrails, covers and restraint systems can prevent many construction accident injuries and deaths from falls, said OSHA.

Training is one of the most important requirements to prevent falls from scaffolding in New York, construction accident lawyer Perecman, the former head New York construction accident lawyer for the New York State Trial Lawyers Association, and a lecturer on construction accident law, said.

If you have been injured or lost a loved one in a New York construction accident or scaffold fall on the job, please contact the New York construction accident lawyers atThe Perecman Firm at http://www.perecman.com.
