TEAM MEMBERS
Powered by Tyson
Team members power Tyson Foods, and Tyson powers the
world. The 114,000 people of our company are dedicated
to producing trusted foods for the world while serving as
stewards of the animals, land and environment entrusted
to them. This dedication is rooted in the Company’s core
values, an integral part of the Tyson culture.
All team members are required to
receive annual training in and comply with a company-
wide code of conduct. Behaving ethically and responsibly,
being stewards of animals and the environment and
treating people with dignity and respect are not just
part of our company’s culture – it is who we are.
Protecting the environment is key to everything we do.
We want the environment of the future to be better
than it is today. For the Company to prosper, the land
must be productive, the air clean and the water pure.
Toward this goal, Tyson developed an all-encompassing
environmental policy, setting the standards all team
members must meet.
Another fundamental responsibility team
members live every day is safety – safety of the products
we produce and safety of our workplace. Each year at
the Tyson annual meeting of shareholders, we honor
production facilities that set the standard for a safe
work environment by presenting the Excellence in Safety
awards and the Chairman’s Safety Circle awards. At the
2004 shareholders meeting, the Randall Road chicken
processing plant in Springdale, Arkansas, was honored for
achieving four million consecutive work hours without a
lost-time accident. Meanwhile, the hatchery in Morrilton,
Arkansas, celebrated 20 years with a perfect safety record.
It is this type of dedication and commitment from our
team members that makes Tyson a great company and
the industry leader.
