Lafarge is committed to providing a safe work environment and to conducting its various businesses in a safe manner. Health and safety are core business values that must be incorporated into all aspects of our operations.
We integrate health and safety objectives into our management systems at all levels of the Company. Achievement of these objectives is reinforced by our recognition and rewards programs.
Everyone shares responsibility for health and safety. All employees expect a safe and healthy work environment, and in turn, we expect each employee to contribute to that safe environment through responsible behavior.
When it comes to safety, the only acceptable number is zero – zero accidents, incidents or cases of ill health. Reaching this goal is critical to our overall business success.
When parts of Florida and the Southeast were devastated by summer hurricanes, Lafarge executives rallied employees, customers, vendors and contractors to aid needy neighbors.
