Safe Working Conditions
There are many companies
who believe that their profits go up when they cut
back on safe working conditions and procedures,
and by not replacing defective equipment. They
believe that lower costs of operations make for
profitable operations.
The
truth is that where there is cutting back, the
operational costs go up. This effect is caused by
many things including high training costs for
replacement personnel, lost time on the production
line, low moral and consequentially low
production, high maintenance costs of production
equipment because of lack of care by employees,
and many other considerations.
Imports Unlimited will employ all means available
to support the workers in safe working
conditions. All employees will have complete
training on any equipment used in the assigned
jobs and will be thoroughly trained on safe
working procedures. Supervision will be assuring
that unsafe practices will not be used in our
operations. Incentive programs will be
implemented to encourage workers to use safe
practices in the performance of their jobs.
Imports will also purchase and operate the latest
equipment for not only higher production
capabilities but also for safer conditions for
employees as they accomplish the job tasks.
The
farm operations will focus on safe practices in
body movement and decreasing repetitive motion
injuries. All climbing equipment such as ladders
will have regular safety inspections and unsafe
equipment will be retired. New machinery that
will eliminate hazardous jobs will be employed.
Of
course all of the measures outlined above are not
only to promote safety and reduce injuries; it is
also to improve the quality of our products and to
improve a stable quantity of product. The core
vision of our operations is to have “End-to-End”
control of our product. This results in the
consistent supply of the highest quality product
on a reliable delivery schedule to our customers
and partners.
When our employees win, we win!
