Case Study: Johnson & Johnson Cordis de Mexico Ensuring Environmental, Health And Safety Leadership
By Xterprise
Cordis de Mexico is a division of Cordis Corporation, a Johnson & Johnson company, and a leading source of less invasive treatments for vascular disease. Cordis leverages technology innovation and a deep understanding of patients and the medical marketplace to develop and make breakthrough products for interventional medicine, minimally invasive computer-based imaging, and electrophysiology. The company's 7,000 employees are committed to pursuing the ongoing fight against vascular disease.
Protecting Cordis Employees
To protect those employees, Cordis is dedicated to strong environmental, health and safety leadership. As part of that commitment, the company launched an associate risk prevention program designed to monitor and protect workers at a key production facility in Juarez, Mexico. This facility was recognized in 2007 by Industry Week Magazine as #3 in its annual "10 Best Plants."
Company policy called for all employees to muster for a roll call in the event of a hazardous spill or other safety event. But manual roll calls take time, and missing workers can be difficult to locate if they are incapacitated.
