Safety Week: 5 days to promote safety in the company
Also this year VINCI, always attentive to the theme of Safety, kicks off the Safety Week project involving over 194,000 employees internationally.
Yves Meignié, CEO of VINCI Energies, said: “Fatal accidents at work are unacceptable. No one should lose their life on a construction site or on their way to or from their workplace. In the last 5 years data within the VINCI Group has improved, however the commitment must be continuous in order to achieve Safety Excellence. Every year we dedicate a week to discussion and training on this important issue in all the Group’s companies. The aim is to convey the need and importance of prevention with everyone’s contribution. Because Safety is an individual and collective responsibility.”
On this theme from 14th to 18th May 2018 in Italy VINCI Energies and the Group’s brands, Axians, Elphi VM, VINCI Facilities, will involve its employees and collaborators in a series of initiatives organized for the occasion whose focus will be on the importance of OBSERVING – ALERTING – COMMUNICATING.
Mario Capellari, President of VINCI Energies Italia, underlines: “In addition to being a training necessity, Safety Week is an important opportunity that allows us to communicate corporate values through a global initiative. Ensuring healthy and safe working environments is a priority for us. Today, within companies, Safety must be taught, to increase awareness and the importance of prevention. During these five days, announcements and testimonies from managers and employees from different countries will alternate with training activities designed to raise awareness among people, so that they can benefit at work but also in their daily lives.”
