Process Safety and Disaster Prevention, Occupational Safety and Health
Approach and Policy
The Mitsubishi Chemical Group recognizes that conducting safe manufacturing activities forms the foundation for the very existence of the company and that the Group has a corporate social responsibility to ensure safety. For this, we endeavor to build systems to prevent process safety accidents as well as occupational injuries and rapidly respond when such accidents occur.
Structure
At Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation (MCC), the Environment and Safety Promotion Committee, which is headed by the executive officer in charge of environment and safety, determines the environment and safety activity plan for the current fiscal year, taking into account the results and progress of the previous fiscal year. Each department formulates its own activity plan based on the environment and safety activity plan and strives to prevent accidents and other incidents from occurring.
Core Measures
Lowering the Lost-Time Injury Frequency Rate / Number of Accidents
Based on the Group’s environmental and safety principle that safety is the foundation of the company’s very existence, and ensuring safety is the company’s social responsibility, we will continue to engage in monozukuri with safety as the top priority. The Group will ensure safe workplaces by continuously eliminating unsafe conditions and behaviors and minimizing potential risks; thereby, continuing to lower our lost-time injury frequency rate and the number of accidents through the enhancement of psychological safety and instilling a strong awareness of safety throughout the organization.
