SAFETY AT WORK

Every one of our employees is entitled to a safe working environment. We aim to ensure smooth work without accidents for both our own staff and third parties working on our premises.

We focus on ensuring our employees’ safety-related competence. Sufficient orientation, regular safety training and up-to-date guidelines lay the foundation for a safe working environment. We invest in both job-specific and general safety training and guidelines. Each employee at Olvi’s plants has the appropriate protective equipment and clothing.

In 2024, we encouraged people to make safety, environmental and quality observations by organising a summer campaign. During the campaign, more than 500 observations were made during June and July. In addition, Olvi participated in the activities of the Zero Accident Forum during the year.

We measure the safety of the working environment based on the total number of accidents and absences caused by accidents. A total of 12 accidents occurred at Olvi in 2024. There was zero serious accident.

The increase in the number of accidents is at least partly explained by an active development of the safety culture, which means that even smaller accidents are reported. This way, the accident investigation model can be deployed and recurring accidents can be prevented.
