Safety

Safety for All

Our largest responsibility is to assure our factories are safe places to work. But safety is more than statistics or awards; it’s a personal and shared responsibility to look out for our own and others’ well-being, both in the workplace and at home. We firmly believe all accidents can be prevented. 

"My dedication to creating a safe workplace free of all injuries will be absolute and clear through my actions.”

GGB EMPLOYEE PLEDGE

Our world-class manufacturing facilities are certified to ISO 45001 (OHSAS 18001), the international standard for occupational health and safety system—ensuring customers receive a high quality product, but also assuring that everyone at our facilities safely return to their loved ones at home. To create safe, injury-free workplaces, we have formed active safety programs to provide employees with annual first-aid training, quarterly information exchange meetings, monthly safety inspections, and continual monitoring of air quality and noise levels. Other safety practices include:  

  1. Proper safety attire 

  2. Accident investigation 
  3. Increased pedestrian safety 

  4. Fire drill and evacuation exercises 
  5. Weekly and monthly health and safety audits 

  6. Yearly safety training for all GGB employees 

 

Every 5 years, the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs presents an award for the safest companies in the Slovak Republic. GGB Slovakia was granted the "Safe Enterprise" award for the third time in a row (2011, 2016, 2021).
