VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, October 24, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Methanex Corporation (TSX:MX) (NASDAQ:MEOH), the world’s largest producer and supplier of methanol, is pleased to announce it has been named Canada’s Safest Chemistry Employer at the 2022 Canada’s Safest Employer Awards (CSEA) ceremony.

Presented by the Canadian Occupational Safety magazine and now in its 12th year, the awards program recognizes companies and professionals for outstanding health and safety achievements, leadership, and innovation over the past 12 months.
