INNIO’s Welland manufacturing facility takes top awards for environmental program and safety
Canadian Occupational Safety named INNIO Group’s Waukesha manufacturing facility in Canada a 2023 5-Star Energy & Resource Company and a recipient of the 5-Star Safety Award. The Waukesha manufacturing facility in Welland, Ontario, Canada, received honors for demonstrating a strong Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) program; measurable environmental and social impacts; and a consistent health and safety policy. It also was named one of the best workplaces in Canada for its safety culture.
With our Waukesha technology, we are empowering customers on their decarbonization journeys. Our commitment to ESG principles is not only core to our operations but is fundamentally intertwined with the value we provide to our customers. Our advanced solutions support efficient energy consumption, enhanced productivity, and lower maintenance costs.
In the energy and natural resources sectors, employers are keenly aware of work-related risks and therefore have been pioneers in promoting workers’ health and safety in their day-to-day activities. This is why Canadian Occupational Safety is proud to highlight the companies that are making a difference in these sectors. Their leadership brings guidance and expertise, especially after a tough couple of years. The awards are a great way to champion the best in class and bring inspiration to the field of occupational health and safety.
The 5-Star Safety Culture winners were lauded for their vigilance surrounding employee safety. Canadian Occupational Safety recognized the Waukesha manufacturing facility and the other 5-Star Safety Culture winners “for deploying a diverse set of tools and workplace policies, all in order to ensure the well-being of their employees.” The 5-Star award came about as part of Canada’s aims for a “green transition” backed by investment in more renewable sources of energy. A “just transition” also considers worker well-being and livelihood.
