Our facilities work in concert with local authorities and regulatory agencies in an effort to meet or exceed EHS requirements in every country in which we operate. EHS managers at every National site are accessible and knowledgeable about applicable regional, federal, state and local laws governing plant operations.
Sites maintain compliance logs and records of agency reviews.
We are also committed to protecting the health and safety of our employees. We also maintain emergency response plans and have trained emergency response teams at all our manufacturing facilities. Material Safety Data Sheets, which give detailed information for chemicals used in the manufacturing process, are kept in all applicable work areas. Additionally, all of our employees have the power to declare a situation unsafe and call for an immediate assessment. We have also implemented an employee ergonomics program to further reduce the potential for injury.
