There are two important phases of industrial safety. The first is a matter of providing the safest possible working conditions. Guards and safety controls are installedon all equipment to provide a maximum amount of protection for operators. Our safety glasses and approved food protection program is an important part of this effort. From a physical standpoint everything possible is done to ensure your safety. Safety equipment and safety devices alone, however, cannot do the job. Safety is also a matter of individual cooperation and individual responsibility.

Recycling

Plant policies for collection of recyclable materials including paper, cardboard, metals, etc. are to be followed.

Locking out during any exposure to hazardous energy is not optional. It is mandatory.
Our lockout procedures, the best in the industry, can only saves lives when they are implemented.

An affected person is anyone whose duties are affected by the lockout. This includes supervisors. Affected persons must be notified in advance of the intention to shut down and lockout for service. An authorized person is the person performing the task, and he or she is responsible for locking out energy sources. If you are unsure of your safety, don't perform the task.
