六月是全国安全月。虽然我们一年 365 天都把安全放在首位，但我们很自豪能在这个月表彰我们出色的安全记录，并重申我们对促进安全工作环境的长期承诺。

We recently sat down with Tim Zernzach, Robertshaw’s Global Senior Director of Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS). Tim has been instrumental in setting our corporate-wide safety goals and providing compliance oversight across all our global locations.

Tim focuses on implementing standardized EHS programs and processes, leading and working alongside our site-specific safety managers throughout all our global locations. Among his many accomplishments, Tim has established standardized training programs, dispensed visual aids such as training posters and handouts, and implemented a company-wide safety culture.

While every country has its own unique regulations, we go above and beyond these minimum requirements. We ensure that every employee receives the same level of support and guidance. We take a proactive approach, enabling us to surpass today’s safety requirements and those of tomorrow.

Our EHS process emphasizes the following:

• Promoting a culture of daily preparedness
• Aiming for continuous improvement
• Limiting distractions
• Emphasizing simplicity
• Encouraging collaboration

To establish safety awareness, we’ve implemented numerous company-wide initiatives. One example of this is our Safety Always Pledge: by signing this pledge, our team members gain an appreciation for prioritizing safety every day. The Safety Always acronym represents this pledge.

We’ve also launched a Safety Observation Program that empowers our team to actively identify potential hazards and implement corrective actions. This program, coupled with in-depth analysis of recent injuries (hand related), helps us learn and adapt, fostering a proactive, team-based approach to safety.

We’re proud of our long history of safety, and especially our recent emphasis on EHS, for which Tim has played an oversized role. Celebrate with us by making safety a priority in June and beyond.
