Safety
Safety is at the heart of everything we do. We want to make sure that everyone, from our employees and partners to the users of our equipment, gets home safely every day. Together, we create safety and actively care for one another’s well-being.
Creating safety together
Safety is one of our core principles, deeply embedded in our culture and daily operations. It guides everything we do – from design and manufacturing to installation, service operations, and collaboration with customers and partners – with a strong focus on the safe use of our equipment.
We are committed to creating safety together. In practice, this means:
- Focusing on prevention: Rather than relying mainly on traditional safety measures and lagging indicators, such as injury frequency rates, we emphasize proactive reporting, risk identification, and mitigation before the risks could lead to serious incidents.
- Integrating safety into everyday work: Supported by visible leadership, continual improvement, and advanced digital tools.
- Empowering our people and partners: Encouraging everyone to speak up, share ideas, and help shape safer ways of working – while keeping them informed of the actions taken.
- Using data to drive decisions: Leveraging digital solutions to provide real-time insights that enable smarter actions and ongoing safety improvement.
- Working together globally: Engaging employees, customers, and partners through initiatives such as our annual Safety Week.
