Safety Observation Program Exceeds Goal at Mexico Facility Our facility in Mexico implemented a safety observation program in 2023 to gather team member insights about areas for safety improvement. By the end of the year, more than 700 observations and ideas were collected, exceeding the team’s goal of 500 submissions. Ninety percent of safety observations submitted by team members were proactive measures that improve the safety of the workplace before an injury can occur. By the end of the year, 80 percent of these measures were implemented. In 2024, the team will focus on capital improvement projects to improve machinery for ergonomics and noise control.
Safety Action Teams Empower Team Members
In 2023, the SATs completed the following key projects: • Creation of more than 100 job-safety analyses (JSAs) • Installation of QR codes on machinery and equipment to allow quick access to related JSAs • Standardization of communication boards • Participation in root-cause analyses of significant injuries and incidents The Safety Steering Committee, composed of one representative from each SAT and two senior leaders from Production Operations, meets regularly to review each team’s progress and share best practices.
S&C has 14 safety action teams (SATs) that drive team member engagement in identifying and remediating potential safety risks. They do this through various methods, including observations, assessments, and interviews with team members. All team members have an opportunity, on a rotating basis, to serve on an SAT for their department, unit, or division. Responsibilities of our SATs include: • Completing monthly “Go-and-See” inspections and addressing any safety concerns identified via these inspections • Managing our Quick-Fix program • Organizing safety awareness and promotion campaigns • Offering targeted safety programs based on data analysis • Conducting accident/incident investigations and analyses • Executing audits using a Web-based platform to enhance awareness and safety in departmental areas • Monitoring progress and resolution of identified safety improvement opportunities
