Safety

Our associates are our most valuable resource, and providing a safe and healthy working environment for each and every associate is of paramount importance.  Highlighting this commitment, Weastec is one of only 28 companies in Ohio that is SHARP (Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program) certified by OSHA.

Safety is integral to our culture and therefore safety is everyone’s job.  Weastec has developed a framework of safety rules and procedures, derived from OSHA regulations, which are regularly communicated to associates through scheduled training sessions.  All associates are also given ownership of the safety system, and are incentivized to bring safety concerns or improvements to management at any time.  Additionally, associates are encouraged to participate in safety related activities, such as becoming a member of our safety committee or becoming a first responder for emergency situations.  Weastec is committed to continuous improvement of our safety programs and procedures, and it takes everyone working together to ensure our success.
