2021 Owens Corning Sustainability Report | Expanding Our Product Handprint | Product Innovation & Stewardship | 103 EHS Impacts of Products and Services Owens Corning strictly adheres to internal controls for environmental, health, and safety (EHS) impacts, which are incorporated into our Business Code of Conduct. Every year, all employees are required to complete training on this code of conduct, and new hires throughout the company must undergo more in-depth training on our stewardship process. It is our policy that 100% of new and significantly modified products and services must be assessed for environmental, health, and safety impacts. Failure Mode and Effects Analysis We use many tools to ensure the safety of our products and processes, including failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA). FMEA is a systemic way to identify, evaluate, reduce, or eliminate problems in products or processes. FMEA is conducted by cross-functional teams to ensure it reflects different perspectives and knowledge. Based on the results, a risk mitigation plan is implemented to ensure our products are safe to use and perform as claimed.
