Awareness and Safety Go Hand in Hand at International Paper
At International Paper, awareness and safety go hand in hand. Distractions in the workplace can create safety hazards resulting in someone getting hurt. We teach our teams to maintain a focused mind on the current job task, and practice awareness of surroundings to avoid critical errors and improve on-the-job performance. To encourage safety as a work mindset and lifestyle during our Summer of Safety, we remind our employees to remember to look out for one another, and have the courage to care; avoid rushing when completing tasks; and work with a focus on efficiency, instead of taking shortcuts.
