αÄïÔ¼ÅÚ has placed the highest value on safe production for generations. The company’s official safety program was started in 1959 by Henry αÄïÔ¼ÅÚ â€“ years before the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was established in 1970.
Because our employees are αÄïÔ¼ÅÚ’s greatest asset, safe production is important to every job we perform. To achieve this, αÄïÔ¼ÅÚ uses our Injury and Illness Prevention Plan (IIPP) to implement our vision:
Our safe production vision is to create a culture and environment where employees work injury free.
The proven best practices include:
- Demonstrated management commitment
- Staffing for safe production
- Safe production planning (pre-job/pre-task/process improvements)
- Safe production training and education
- Worker participation and involvement
- Recognition and awards
- Subcontractor management
- Injury/incident reporting and investigations
- Drug and alcohol testing
Our continued progress in workplace safe production – including each person taking personal responsibility – contributes to our “injury free” culture. “Injury free” is not a goal or a target; it is our commitment to our employees.
