Our organization, from the top down to the newest team member, knows that we will gladly shut down an operation if there is any doubt about our ability to operate in a safe manner.
Our goal is to achieve a zero-harm environment, where safety and operational excellence go hand in hand. We believe that every employee, visitor, and community member deserves to return home safely each day.
We proactively identify and mitigate hazards that have the potential to cause catastrophic injuries or loss of life. This includes managing risks associated with falls, exposure to moving equipment, confined spaces, and the challenges of molten metal production. By addressing these high-risk areas, we ensure that our operations are as safe as possible.
We implement comprehensive Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) programs, provide rigorous safety training, and conduct thorough job safety analyses and risk assessments. Our ergonomic initiatives further support our goal of minimizing workplace injuries, ensuring that every team member can perform their duties safely and comfortably.
We understand that safety policies, procedures, and equipment are only effective when supported by a strong culture of safety. Our commitment to the dual bottom line—people and profit—ensures that safety remains our top priority, even in the face of operational challenges. We strive to create an environment where every team member feels empowered to prioritize safety and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.
We partner with industry organizations like the Aluminum Association and the Aluminum Extruders Council (AEC) to participate in collaborative learning events such as the Casthouse Safety Workshops and Safety Summits. These events allow us to share best practices and learn from others, ensuring that we are always at the forefront of safety innovation.
