Health & Safety

Amcor is committed to the goals of ‘No Injuries’ and environmental responsibility. These goals apply equally to all of our operations and are supported by comprehensive policies and procedures, which are based upon internationally recognised standards.

Amcor’s safety programs, which are based on the ‘No Injuries’ goal, apply equally to employees, contractors and visitors to our sites. These programs are being continually assessed and enhanced to improve the level of safety within the group.

The key safety measures used by Amcor are:

• Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) - number of injuries resulting in at least one full work day lost, per million hours worked
• Recordable Case Frequency Rate (RCFR) - number of recordable cases, i.e. medical treatments and lost time injuries per million hours worked

It is clear that, in order to reach our safety goal, there has to be a holistic approach to safety management. Therefore, Amcor's systems and procedures are supported by a strong focus on fixing physical conditions as well as improving safety behaviours. In order to improve the safe behaviours of all co-workers, strong leadership is critical so all of our businesses develop programs that require all levels of management to show safety leadership.

Amcor focuses on leveraging the best practice programs from our most successful businesses across the whole group. We continuously look for ways to improve the safety of our facilities and will not be satisfied until we have reached and maintained the goal of ‘No Injuries’.
