Workplace Safety
Heinz believes that occupational health and safety is the most important element of good
operational performance from the factory floor to our global offices. Our Company has placed an
emphasis on workplace safety and continuous improvement in this crucial area because people
are Heinzs greatest resource. Heinz has conducted mandatory safety training for all production
employees.
Heinz has maintained a comprehensive safety management system and requires each of our
production employees to adhere to strict safety guidelines that meet or exceed industry
standards in the countries where we manufacture.
Each Heinz facility around the world has been required to implement the Heinz Safety Process,
a systematic approach to creating safe work environments that aims to eliminate occupational
injuries and illnesses.
