2021 Owens Corning Sustainability Report | Expanding Our Social Handprint | Living Safely | 262 Owens Corning’s recordable incident rate is 90% lower than it was in 2002, the year we declared safety to be our top focus. While we are very proud of that statistic, we also recognize that the only truly acceptable number of injuries is zero. As more of our employees return to work, there is a real need to underscore the importance of safety among our employees, contractors, and visitors, so that we can better position ourselves to achieve our 2030 safety goals. We will also be looking at ways to integrate new technologies, such as virtual reality, machine-guarding systems, and more, as we seek to keep our employees safe and SIF-proof our operations. In addition, data analytics will continue to play a role in our initiatives. Integrating our data enables us to refine our processes and make decisions with greater efficiency. We are exploring new avenues for gaining insights from data and predictive analytics, which we believe will be invaluable as we work to make it impossible for accidents to occur. Even as we work to eliminate risks and develop rules and policies that make injuries and illnesses less likely to occur, the fact remains that it is incumbent upon every one of our employees to remain diligent throughout the workday. We are proud of the dedication our people have shown thus far, and we encourage them to remain steadfast on our collective March to Zero.
