Effective safety management across our sites

At Sulzer, safety comes first. We aim to empower all employees to act safely and strive for zero accidents.  We conduct regular audits and continuously improve our practices to ensure a safe and healthy work environment.  

Our facilities meet international health and safety standards, building on Sulzer’s QESH standards and our achievements in ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 certifications. Our commitment to achieving and upholding these high standards in our facilities facilitates an ongoing cycle of evaluation and enhancement of our safety procedures.

Employee participation in safety matters

We recognize that the involvement of our employees is crucial for the effectiveness of our safety and health practices. The Human Performance initiative at Sulzer emphasizes regular interaction with employees through the safety walk program, fostering a culture of mutual care and safety vigilance. A stop-work program grants every worker the authority to halt operations if safety conditions are compromised. Managers are promptly engaged to review and rectify the work environment, ensuring the reinstatement of safe conditions. The initiative places strong emphasis on competency and mandates role-specific training.

For Alexsandro Sousa, Operations Manager at the Brazil Service Center, ensuring employee safety is always a priority.

A holistic approach to wellbeing

Through our global Sulzer in Motion (SiM) program, we additionally promote employee wellbeing, enhance collaboration, and strengthen team spirit across the organization. Taking a holistic approach, the program addresses both physical, mental, and social health through its three pillars “Mind”, “Heart”, and “Body”. Every year, employees can participate in 3-4 company-wide challenges as well as various local Sulzer in Motion events and initiatives, which are organized on an on-going basis.
