At thyssenkrupp nucera, “safety first” is more than a principle we embrace on World Day for Safety and Health at Work—it’s a philosophy that guides what we do each and every day. We are committed to ensuring safety for our customers, our co-workers, ourselves and our families. Our teams have a clear understanding: Safety starts with each of us, which means stopping any unsafe activity and taking action to make it safe.
It has been 55 years since a massive oil spill in Santa Barbara, California, prompted Senator Gaylord Nelson to propose a national teach-in to protest environmental ignorance and demand action to protect the planet.
