Yet another year is closing on us – and what a year it has been! A roller coaster ride is a fitting analogy with all the turns, ups, and downs.
According to Websters, Proactive is defined as acting in anticipation of future problems, needs, or changes.
At AXEL, a proactive approach reinforces our commitment to employee, contractor, and visitor safety. An example of this is our Safe Work Permit Program that covers Hot Work, Confined Space, and Lockout Tagout (LOTO). Safe work permits are an essential part of keeping employees and contractors safe while performing hazardous tasks.
We are happy and grateful for our existing and new customers who trust and partner with us for their grease business needs. As we experience high demand and growth, we continue to hire qualified professionals to our AXEL Americas Team across our three facilities in Tulsa, Schertz, and Rosedale. We welcome all our new team members and wish them the best of success with their responsibilities and careers!
On October 15th, AXEL arranged a seminar presenting joint research projects with the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). There were more than 30 attendants, of which approximately 1/3 were virtually present from across Europe and USA.
On October 8, 2020 AXEL in Tulsa, Oklahoma celebrated one year with no OSHA recordables. While AXEL’s commitment to safety starts with leadership, it must be supported by our employees. The Tulsa employees picked up the proverbial safety culture torch and never looked back. Each employee, from management to our temporary staff, plays a huge role in driving the safety culture on a day to day basis. Along with that drive, AXEL ensures employees are provided the necessary tools and resources to be successful. Examples include safety initiatives like “I see it, I own it, I act”, on-going training, personal protective equipment, policies and procedures, and open lines of communicators to voice EHS concerns or needs. The Tulsa employees were presented with hard hat stickers signifying their 1 year accomplishment along with a banner that each employee signed to be proudly displayed.
