Maintaining a Safe and Healthy Workplace
Our Commitment
Hexcel prioritizes the well-being of its workforce, and we understand that our employees must be kept safe while at work for Hexcel to be truly successful. It takes each of us, working together, to achieve Hexcel’s goal of zero injuries and safety incidents. We are all responsible for the health and safety of our colleagues, our work sites and our communities.
How We Act with Integrity
- Stop the job and speak up if you are asked to perform a task you believe is unsafe or for which you lack the proper knowledge, tools or protective equipment.
- Immediately report any safety concerns or potential risks, such as someone performing a task in an unsafe manner, removing or deactivating guarding, interlocks or environmental control equipment, or failing to use required personal protective equipment.
- Make sure all workers on your team are properly trained and follow all rules and procedures.
- Know, understand and comply with the Hexcel EHS Golden Rules (HMS 3.1.21) at all times.
- Compromise health and safety for any reason.
- Remain silent when others are not working in compliance with health and safety rules and procedures.
- Fail to immediately report an incident, injury or illness to the appropriate supervisor, line manager, EHS site manager or site leader.
Integrity in Action
While working on a project, I noticed a potential safety hazard. Reporting the hazard could cause both a delay in work and added costs for Hexcel. Is it okay if I wait to report this issue until after we complete the project?
No, you should notify your supervisor, site leader or EHS site manager immediately. Promptly report any potential hazard that could endanger you or a co-worker, or damage Hexcel equipment. You may also make a report through the SafeTalk Helpline.
