Safety

We take care of each other

At Avantium, we prioritize enriching our knowledge, understanding, and behaviors to ensure a safe working environment. Every three months, we immerse ourselves in a new safety theme to continuously improve our practices. Some examples of our quarterly safety themes include:

  • Giving and accepting feedback
  • Acknowledging and recognizing unsafe situations
  • Electrical awareness
  • Housekeeping

Safety first

Safety is our highest priority in everything we do. All Avantium employees are committed to our Golden Safety Rules, which serve as daily reminders of our dedication to safety. While we have robust procedures and systems in place, we understand that maintaining a safe work environment requires continuous attention and a strong safety culture.
