It’s personal, it takes commitment, and it isn’t always convenient, but every person who works at Austin Powder knows that it is never optional.
In order to fulfill our mission statement, we give our employees state-of-the-art training that cultivates a sense of watchful responsibility for themselves and one another and empowers them with the authority to stop any activity they deem unsafe. And just as importantly, they are supported by our company culture to make the right safety decisions in every task they do… no matter what. There is nothing in our business that is worth an individual getting hurt.
We see every person in every aspect of our business as a valued member of our family where everyone looks out for their brothers and sisters.
Our commitment to safety has evolved since we began in 1833 to include our blasting services in the field, in addition to the requirements at our manufacturing and storage facilities. We bring the same level of safety care to the way we drive and maintain our fleet of vehicles and how we manage our equipment underground. Our corporate goal is to be recognized as the safest explosives manufacturer, supplier, and blasting company in the world.
Our Safety Mission is for each and every employee to leave work at the end of the day and enjoy their time with their family and friends at home… every day.
Safety at Austin Powder is the number one concern with everything that we do, from the hiring through all the training that we get before we step onto the bench and every day from then on in, safety is the number one concern from the beginning of the day to the end.
At Austin Powder, we empower every employee at every level to have the same ability to address any safety hazard there is on a job.
