Kokosing's Commitment to Safety

Kokosing's commitment to safety can be divided into four distinct segments.  These include:

• Management commitment

• Employee education

• Proper safety equipment

• Accountability

Many companies say their management is committed to safety, however, Kokosing management is not just committed, we shirtsleeve manage the safety process.  We know the safety rules and are involved in making changes to improve the health and safety of our employees. 

Kokosing ensures that all foremen, superintendents, engineers, and managers receive continued safety education and training to stay current on recent standards and practices.  Without question, Kokosing employees are supplied with the equipment needed to perform their jobs safely.  Once employees are trained and provided the safety equipment required, Kokosing requires those employees to be accountable for their own safety and the safety of the employees working around them.

Various 'Safety Recognition' incentive programs are in place for employees to be rewarded to following safety procedures.  Hourly employees can earn "safety points" to purchase incentive items.  This program is described in detail by clicking on the 'Safety Recognition' link button in the link bar.
