Three years without workplace injuries
12.09.2013
We have achieved an ambitious record: three years without workplace injuries. We managed to achieve this important result at our plant in Cerreto d’Esi in September 2013. We were also helped in accomplishing this target through the introduction into the company of the World Class Manufacturing (WCM) programme.
In the words of Francesco Casoli, Chairman of the Elica Group: “Above all, in our view, safety is not just a slogan but a fundamental lever which you must believe in if you want to be competitive and a market leader in the world. The introduction of World Class Manufacturing into the company forced us to make a real and effective cultural change, through which we achieved this new important result thanks to the hard work of everyone. The WCM represents for us a global method and a common language for Elica everywhere from Italy to Poland and as far as Mexico, where the programme was recently launched. Our standards and our rules must be the same everywhere and provide the same excellent levels of performance, because this is the only way to build a solid future.”
The first foundation of safety in our view is a mental attitude which requires and involves a radical cultural change founded on three main pillars: ongoing training, people involvement and an example from top management. The result achieved by the plant in Cerreto d'Esi is the effective expression of the advantages that come from WCM, and demonstrates that creating a safety culture actually pays off: people move from having reactions to promoting prevention, pointing out every possible problem that might cause injury, showing that safety in the workplace is a priority and fundamental value for the whole organisation
