Cooper's Take Charge Safety and Health AwardsCooper established a unique program, the Take Charge Safety and Health Awards, to increase the awareness and effective management of safety and health processes at all our facilities with a goal of keeping accidents and injuries to a minimum. The Take Charge Awards recognize facilities that have outstanding safety records and demonstrate creative approaches to safety management. The Take Charge program focuses on three key forms of measurement for each competing facility: management of safety programs and systems, safety and health systems, and innovations within the safety and health program. Cooper honors top performers on an annual basis with grants to local programs promoting community safety, such as fire prevention, emergency planning and CPR training. The Take Charge Awards have played an important role in making Cooper's facilities among the safest in the United States. In the United States, Cooper's rate of lost time cases for 2005 was 37% below the National Bureau of Labor Statistics' average for the manufacturing sector and 18% lower than last year. |
