“The company continues
to display an almost unique
aptitude to grow its
earnings in a dismal metal
price environment.”
Richard Aldrich

“Our safety performance was
already at a world leading
level when we started working
on it 11 years ago. Since then,
we’ve improved it by 85%.”
Paul O’Neill
Chairman, Alcoa
“The Alcoa Business System
and Alcoa Production System…
provide the company with
the platform and infrastructure
to sustain top-line growth through
acquisitions, and bottom-line
growth by continuous cost reduction
and performance improvements.”
