Safety

Sperry is committed to providing a safe and healthy work environment, and has developed a Safety Management System (SMS) to provide a framework for leadership at all levels in the company. This emphasis on achieving a strong safety culture is part of what makes Sperry a great place to work. The management team is committed to providing the leadership and resources to achieve a world-class safety system with world class results. Indeed, this is what our customers expect. It is our belief that both Sperry employees and subcontractors will share in the successful implementation of the Safety Management System. At Sperry, Safety is one of our Core Beliefs.

We believe:

- All incidents are preventable
- Leadership is required for success in safety
- Each of us has a personal responsibility for our safety and the safety of others, both on and off the job

- Working safely is a condition of employment

We will:

- Dedicate the appropriate time, energy and resources to making safety an everyday part of what we do
- Perform a hazard analysis prior to each job task
- Report all safety hazards, injuries and incidents including near misses and first aid cases
- Challenge any request to perform work that is unsafe
- Actively participate in creating a culture that embraces safety
