Yaskawa's Meaning of "Safety"

 

Within Yaskawa, we never ask, "Safety or Production?" It is always, "Safe Production."

Our goal is: Safe production of quality products that are delivered at the time the customer wants them.    

Safe production means we do three things:

  2. Eliminate or control the hazards, and

Emergency Response Web App

Placeholder image
Yaskawa's Emergency Web App is a mobile website that you can use to learn about actions that you should take during an emergency while in a Yaskawa facility, at home, or anywhere

We recommend that you add a shortcut onto your phone. You may want to encourage your family and friends to load it onto their phones since it includes information about how to respond to emergencies outside of Yaskawa.

The Emergency Response Web App includes recommended actions for:

  • First aid,
  • Mass Casualty (multiple people injured, such as in a car accident),
  • Severe weather,
  • Fire,
  • Nearby catestrophic event (such as a train derailment that was carrying hazardous materials),
  • Flood,
  • Earthquake,
  • Violence,
  • Exposure to severe temperatures,
  • Hazardous material spills.

This web app also includes:

  • Tips for maintaining your composure during an emergency,
  • Link to Safety Data Sheets (safety information for hazardous chemicals), and
  • Links to Yaskawa Safety Brief videos.
