Nizhniy Tagil Iron & Steel Works lowers industrial accidents rate by 24% in 2007

Nizhniy Tagil Iron & Steel Works (part of Evraz Group) managed to lower its industrial accidents rate by 24% in January-December 2007, while the frequency of accidents went down by 19%. There was not a single fatal accident, either.

These data were provided at the special extended meeting devoted to the company’s labor protection activity in 2007. The meeting was attended by executives from all of the enterprise’s departments.

The spokesperson for Nizhniy Tagil Iron & Steel Works reports these improvements were possible due to meeting all the industrial safety regulations and preventive measures. Some 20,000 metallurgists underwent safety training last year, while the company’s Labor Protection Department’s experts carried out nearly 2,500 inspections in the production shops.
