Perstorp and DuPont Sustainable Solutions Collaborate on Safety
MALMÖ, Sweden - Perstorp Group, a global specialty chemicals company, has developed a new safety protocol for its seven international manufacturing sites with the help of safety and operations management consultancy, DuPont Sustainable Solutions. The initiative was prompted by Perstorp’s desire to be among the top quartile of companies for safety performance.
The specialty chemical producer realized in 2017 that it needed to strengthen its safety culture and do more to improve the health and wellbeing of its employees. The company therefore launched a global initiative called Care 365. As part of this program, Perstorp set up a global safety project named “Project Dolphin” in January 2018, with the objective of establishing a data-driven baseline of the current situation, benchmarking this against relevant industry standards and obtaining guidance on improvement strategies. The project began by assessing the safety perception of the company’s employees, with the help of the DuPont Safety Perception Survey tool.
