Our Safety Commitment Statement
We are committed to strengthening our safety culture to achieve an injury-free workplace by creating and sustaining a work environment that values:
Having every employee leave the workplace unhurt;
- Using work behaviors and practices that uncompromisingly protect the safety of everyone;
- Caring for the safety of each other; and
- Stopping work anytime unsafe conditions or behaviors are observed until the job can be completed safely.
Continuous commitment and dedication to these values by all of us will assure that the safest workplace is established and that the safest work behaviors are always used to prevent injuries.
Improving Our Work Environment
In December 2011, we experienced a terrible tragedy when three of our employees lost their lives, and two others were wounded in an office shooting incident at Southern California Edison. It was a sad and painful event, and we are committed to learning from this tragedy to build a healthy company culture and work environment for today and the future. Together we will learn, grow, and move forward to an improved work environment.
An independent organizational assessment of our workplace was initiated, and we have begun implementing a number of the recommendations, including:
Adopting a people-management training program for managers and supervisors;
- Reviewing our performance appraisal process including reinforcement of our values; and
- Implementing workplace-security training and enhanced security at our facilities.
