Our lockout tagout program – another fundamental safety policy at Acme Corrugated – has also been incredi- bly beneficial to safe daily operations. “Lockout tagout ensures that no one can energize equipment in scenarios when a worker could potentially be exposed to its hazardous energy, whether that energy is electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, steam, water, or even gravity,” Wertman says. “There are key controls and oth- er locking mechanisms to make sure that the only person who can re-energize a machine is the one who de-ener- gized it.” Training for lockout tagout is conducted annually, and is very specific to each machine center in the plant. Company-Wide Diligence Beyond these individual practices, Acme Corrugat- ed Box attributes its positive safety record in large part to efforts that extend beyond the production floor. From conference rooms to offices to lunch areas, safety training is all in a day’s work for Acme Corrugated Box team mem- bers, no matter their department. “In our SafeStart® culture, all business meetings across all departments start with a safety-related story and the lessons we can learn from those stories,” says Wertman. “This degree of dissemination and inclusion is how you establish a world-class safety culture like the one we strive for here at Acme Corrugated Box.”
