How long have you been with Altri?

I’ve been with Altri since December 2013.

What does your daily routine at the company involve?

I organise and coordinate various health, safety, and fire prevention activities. I respond immediately to situations that arise in the factory, providing support to maintenance, production, and project teams.

What does it mean to you to have been highlighted as an example of safety within your company?

Initially, it was surprising, given that I consider setting an example as an essential requirement for my role, so I didn’t expect to be recognised in this manner. I always intervene whenever necessary, aiming to encourage the most appropriate behaviour possible.

What challenges do you face in promoting safety in the workplace?

The main challenge involves prevention, awareness, and education, so improvements can be seen in adopting responsible behaviours.

What measures would you implement to achieve Zero Accidents?

Although achieving “zero accidents” absolutely is challenging, a strong focus on prevention and continuous improvement in safety practices can significantly reduce both the frequency and severity of incidents. Identifying hazards, mitigating risks, and ensuring comprehensive training for all employees in their specific areas is crucial.
