Although we believe we have made significant improvements in our safety journey, we recognize there is still work ahead. For more information, see our “Strengthening Safety & Quality” website at www.boeing.com/strengthening-safety-and-quality. Employee Safety Beyond product safety, employee safety plays a critical role in our safety strategy. Our Safety Guiding Principles are the foundation of workplace safety at Boeing. Each principle addresses a specific aspect of a healthy safety culture. Built around the concepts of safe decision-making and a commitment to protecting each other, our Safety Guiding Principles and our workplace safety program, Go4Zero, represent a holistic approach to prevent injuries at work and at home, stemming from the belief that every injury is preventable. By continually identifying areas where improvements can be made and measuring progress using industry standard approaches, our internal compliance requirements often exceed those standards set by government regulations. Every employee has the responsibility to make safety and quality top priorities. Through valuing human life and well-being above all else and acting accordingly, we will continue to foster an open culture where people are empowered and encouraged to speak up about their concerns with the assurance that they will be taken seriously.
