We have adopted the Globally Harmonised System for providing and spreading safety information regarding our products. In addition, we are also members of the Responsible Care program of the Indian Chemical Council and committed to Sustainability; the global chemical industry's unique initiative to improve its Health and Safety.
We have safety teams at two levels- Central and Zonal. While the Central team looks after the overall unit, the Zonal team emphasises the specific zones within the unit. These committees constitute representatives from both management as well as employees. The safety system includes approaches such as:
-
Identification of hazards and assessment of the risk involved in various activities right from product development stage to the delivery stage.
-
Comprehending and incorporating necessary safety measures at the design stage itself.
-
Developing and implementing effective systems such as work permits, mock drills, a system of reporting incidents, identifying the root cause of the same and built-in preventive measures etc.
-
Fire being a major hazard in all the operations, an elaborate firefighting system is installed comprising alarm systems, manual call points, sprinkler systems, pressurized fire hydrant system, fire tenders and well trained human resources to handle emergencies.
-
An ‘On-site emergency’ plan is updated regularly, training imparted, mock drills are organized to fine-tune the emergency plans.

Carrying out HAZOP/ HAZAN studies, developing safety data sheets, selection of suitable material of construction, developing standard operating procedures, carrying out hazardous area of classification are some of the several methods adopted to handle safety aspects of company’s operations.
