Our Culture 25 Safety Maintaining a safe working environment for our employees is paramount. We have clear, consistent policies and standards requiring that we operate in a way that promotes safety and well-being. Across the business, we take measures to prevent workplace hazards, enforce a culture of continuous improvement to ensure our processes help reduce injuries and illnesses, and comply with governing health and safety laws. Fifty-seven of our sites operate under ISO 45001, widely regarded as the world’s highest occupational health and safety standard, and more are in the process of achieving certification. Under ISO 45001, workplace safety is not a standalone issue but rather an integral part of the business strategy to maintain a sustainable organization. As a result of our efforts, many of our business units have been recognized for their success in promoting health and safety among their workers. SASB identifies recordable cases as an indicator of financially sustainable material impact. As such, our performance has consistently been significantly better than the industry standard. *Industry standard numbers are the average of the recordable cases reported by the Aircraft Manufacturing and Shipbuilding & Repairing industries to the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics.
