At Dover, our employees are our most important asset, and we take pride in providing a safe, inclusive workplace and opportunities for development. We believe that a healthy and safe workforce is an engaged workforce that is ready and able to produce quality products for our customers, engage in collaboration, and develop innovative solutions. Safety performance at our facilities starts with strong leadership and is driven by our safety-first culture and continuous improvement mindset. One way we bring our safety commitment to life is through the Dover Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Excellence Awards.
Each year, we recognize outstanding safety performance at the site-level based on quantitative and qualitative evaluations, including TRIR, EHS training hours, kaizens, safety-first culture, and EHS processes. The award categories are divided into large sites (with over 150 employees) and small sites (with 150 employees or fewer).
