OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
We are committed to minimizing the environmental impact of our operations by aligning with leading standards and frameworks to reduce emissions and conserve resources. At the same time, we prioritize the health and safety of every team member, guided by our companywide goal to be injury free.
SAFETY PERFORMANCE We monitor both leading and lagging indicators to gain a comprehensive view of safety performance, identify trends, and drive continuous improvement. In 2025, we reduced our global total case incident rate (TCIR) by 15% to 1.10, achieving a rate more than 50% below the electrical distribution industry average of 2.40 per 100 full-time workers. Our global days away, restricted, or transferred (DART) rate decreased by 20% to 0.64, which is less than half the industry average of 1.40 per 100 full-time workers. Thanks to proactive engagement with team members, we minimized ergonomic risks through on-site preventive care as well as our “Take 5” program.
Team Member Health & Safety Safety is a shared responsibility and reinforced through each team member’s commitment to our safety vision – all incidents are preventable. We empower team members to speak up, guided by the principle, “If you see something, say something and, most importantly, DO something.” PREVENTING TEAM MEMBER INJURIES With oversight from our Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) team, we equip team members with the training and digital tools needed to recognize, report, and resolve risks as part of our One Safe Team commitment. In 2025, we enhanced hazard identification and documentation through our “Take 5” initiative, which encourages team members to pause before each task, evaluate risks, plan to minimize exposure, and proceed with caution. As a result, our operations team proactively documented more than 7,000 safety concerns, near misses, and quick fixes, which enabled targeted corrective actions to be taken. We also prioritize ergonomic best practices to prevent repetitive motions from becoming recordable injuries. In our U.S. and Mexico manufacturing facilities, team members participate in mandatory three-minute warmup sessions twice per day
including a dedicated upper body mobility routine to reduce the risk of injury and reinforce safe alignment for repetitive tasks. In 2025, we conducted over 4,000 workplace health check-ins with team members, helping detect potential risks early and support long-term workforce health. In addition, we added ergonomic and worker-readiness training to our new hire orientation. EMPOWERING TEAMS TO LEAD WITH SAFETY S&C’s Safety Action Teams (SAT) engage team members in identifying and remediating potential safety risks. In 2025, our 14 SATs completed 24 job safety analyses and more than 3,200 quick fixes. Notable projects included: • Strengthened chemical hygiene practices in laboratory hoods to support ongoing operational excellence and enhance future monitoring capabilities • Advanced emergency signaling and alarms across S&C’s Chicago campus to elevate emergency readiness • Expanded PPE, ergonomic, chemical, eyewash, and fire equipment audits to promote consistent accessibility and continually improve workplace safety standards • Installed high-visibility STOP floor markings at forklift-interaction areas to increase situational awareness for drivers and pedestrians and support ongoing collision-prevention efforts across our facilities
