Health & Safety

Yokogawa Corporation of America has a Safety Management System in place to ensure a safe working environment for all Yokogawa employees, contractors, sub-contractors and visitors. Yokogawa maintains a host of standard operating procedures to provide guidance to its employees  that are based on best industry practices and governmental compliance.

Employees have a responsibility to themselves, their families, fellow employees, and to the company to work within the standards of safety which have been established by Yokogawa. This responsibility can only be met by working continuously to promote safe work practices and maintaining our property and equipment in safe operating condition at all times.

In recognition that safety and health is the number one priority for Yokogawa, management will champion the following initiatives to promote, create and maintain a safe and healthy work environment for employees and visitors.

All employees will:

1. Observe laws and regulations relating to safety and health.
2. Establish and promote a proactive safety and health management system.
3. Seek to eliminate or minimize hazards by conducting risk assessments.
4. Promote open health and safety communications with employees, customers, shareholders, members of the local community and contractors to maintain the integrity of our safety and health system.
5. Provide necessary education and training to employees.
6. Provide management resources to perform scheduled audits aimed at continuous safety and health improvements.
