SafeStart ®
By incorporating SafeStart® huge success has been achieved over a six year period.
Schneider Electric North America
Schneider Electric North America was seeking zero incidents. Addressing incidents caused by individuals making mistakes had been a struggle for the company. A number of behaviour-based safety (BBS) programmes were utilised over the years with varying degrees of success.
DUPONT STOP™
Consistently above 95 percent "all safe" for first six months of 2010
Knife River Corp. Western Oregon Division
Knife River Corp.'s Western Oregon Division implemented STOP™ For Supervision in 2006. The programme trains line management to help mitigate injuries and incidents through worker observations and discussions. Knife River management particularly valued the observation and communication skills taught throughout the programme – the positive reinforcement STOP™ teaches. These were the skills needed to most improve if Knife River were to succeed in making everyone feel responsible for safety.
STOP DataPro™ enhances Moen's STOP™ programme overall.
Moen Incorporated – New Bern, NC
In 2008, Moen Incorporated implemented DuPont Sustainable Solutions’ STOP™ For Supervision programme – a programme that aims to control injuries and incidents through worker observations and discussions. STOP™ quickly became a key tool for Moen to identify unsafe actions, conditions and behaviours before incidents could occur.
350 Days Without A Recordable Injury
Huhtamaki - Los Angeles, CA
Recently, the Huhtamaki manufacturing plant in Los Angeles celebrated 60 days without an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recordable injury. The milestone was marked with a plant-wide barbecue, but already Huhtamaki was looking ahead in hopes of surpassing its previous record—350 days without a recordable injury. That’s a far cry from 2004, when the company’s safety culture was in need of revitalization.

Human Resources Compliance Training That Clicks
