We continue to foster an environment that empowers all of our employees to make decisions that help us achieve our safety goals. This is a recognition of our entire team for their efforts and resolve in our “commitment to safety” journey. At times it can be challenging, but we understand and accept the fact that there is no finish line. It is indeed our most important continuum.”
