Safety is crucial to the way we do business, and is one of our core values. Our safety focus, which begins at Board and executive management level, is underpinned by three elements: embedding proactive safety behaviour, developing and implementing a safety management system, and finding engineering solutions for the physical safety hazards that are present in the manufacturing environment. Safety performance is rigorously monitored, reported to management and the Board, and is a component of individual performance appraisal and management remuneration.
The management team remains focused on continuing to drive the improvements required to ensure a safe workplace for all. The key focus continues to be embedding the safety programs across the businesses and driving the required behavioural change.
