Preventing Hazards & Promoting Safety
Preventing hazards and applying effective controls are key to maintaining a safe workplace. These efforts help protect employees from injuries, illnesses, and incidents by reducing or eliminating safety and health risks. Our goal is to create and maintain a work environment where employees feel safe, supported, and prepared.
In support of this mission, we emphasize employee involvement in safety planning, empowering teams to speak up and share improvement ideas. Rather than reacting to incidents, we promote a forward-thinking approach using predictive tools and behavioral safety observations to identify risk patterns early.
We also foster a shared responsibility for safety across all levels of the organization. Supervisors, team leads, and frontline workers are all equipped with the resources needed to recognize hazards and take preventive action.
Through active participation, clear communication, and a commitment to continuous improvement, we are building a culture where safety is deeply embedded into daily operations. It is not just a requirement but a shared value.
Safety Practices in Action
- Daily checklists to ensure tools, equipment, and work areas are safe
- Regular inspections of tools, forklifts, ladders, and equipment
- Monthly facility inspections to assess safety and compliance
- Injury and illness tracking to spot trends and take action
- Job safety analysis to evaluate tasks and apply safeguards
- Emergency planning to prepare for unexpected situations
- Ongoing training and drills for emergency readiness

By proactively identifying risks and applying structured control measures, we support a safer and more resilient workplace for every employee.
