Sonae Arauco Focused on Occupational Health & Safety

Jun 13, 2019 | News

At Sonae Arauco, we believe in taking wood further but we also believe that our employees are the ones who take us further every day. This is why one of our priorities is to ensure the health and safety of each individual at Sonae Arauco. Here’s how we do it…

Leaders by Example
Whether it is in our factories or our sales offices, we carefully select leaders who will take their teams forward by leading by example. These individuals are trained and upskilled in health and safety practices.

Risk Reduction
With heavy machinery comes high-risk situations. This is a reality we understand and we work hard each day to reduce the risk of all incidents, accidents, injuries and occupational diseases.

Equipment Training
Safety for our employees in our factories worldwide is more than a priority, it is a way of life. To ensure our wood-based decorative boards are made to standard, each member of the team undergoes training on the equipment that they will be used in wood-based panel production as well as utilising the correct safety gear.

Improvement in All Processes
All teams at Sonae Arauco are fully committed to improving our practices and processes. Teamwork, a focus on employee training and a conscientious attitude towards each individual’s safety is the driving force behind our continuous improvement in the workplaces of Sonae Arauco.

Our achievements in the decorative wood-based panel industry have only been made possible by the collective efforts of our employees globally. From our designers creating inspirational wood grain designs to the men and women who manufacture the boards, we’d like to thank you all.
