Our continuing, company-wide effort to improve work-
place and community safety is a core commitment and an
ongoing challenge that we work to address in the deci-
sions we make each and every day. We are dedicated to
identifying and reducing any safety risks associated with
our operations by reinforcing safe behavior among our
employees and strengthening management accountabil-
ity for ensuring safe behavior. Accordingly, LEGACY, our
company’s signature health and safety leadership training
program, is designed to equip managers at all levels with
the tools, skills, and leadership behaviors to develop a
culture of health and safety across our worldwide opera-
tions. Through this and related activities, we reduced our
employee lost-time injury rate (per million hours worked)
to 1.7, down 15% from 2012, underscoring our devotion
to achieving our global goal of zero incidents.
