Health and safety management
Our commitment: Ensure that all Nestlé employees are covered by a certified safety and health management system

We regard people as our most valuable asset and place the highest priority in providing them a safe and healthy working environment. All our manufacturing facilities, research centres and offices are certified by OHSAS 18001 and ISO 14001. We are also increasing focus on leading indicators like Tool Box Talks, GEMBA (Japanese term for ‘continuous improvement on the shop floor’) and behavioural feedback trainings. There were no fatalities reported in 2016 at any of our sites.
Our ‘Safe Driving’ and ‘Safe by Choice’ programmes were awarded the Nestlé Global Safe Driving award for increased focus on safe, healthy and zero-incident work environment.
