PEOPLE
Safety
To align with our core values, PIPESTONE is
committed to providing a safe and healthy
environment for all employees. PIPESTONE
cares about employee safety and demonstrates
this by promoting a culture of safety, through a
robust safety and health program. Along with
the honorable responsibility of caring for our
animals comes inherent risk to people safety,
PIPESTONE mitigates these risks by adhering to
OSHA safety standards for workplace safety and
implementing proactive strategies to reduce this
risk.
SAFETY
At PIPESTONE, our cross departmental safety
committee works collaboratively with the safety
team to identify and mitigate safety risk. The
safety committee meets bimonthly, with the goal
of improving the overall safety culture with the
organization. Some key areas of focus for this
group include training, procedures, equipment,
recognition, evaluation of potential areas of risk,
and proactive solutions.
The Safe Way, The Only Way!
PIPESTONE believes in “The Safe Way, The Only Way”. This is more than just a slogan; it is demonstrated
through our safety and health training platform. Employees are provided with monthly safety training, on
various topics that impact their ability to work “The Safe Way”. PIPESTONE’S goal is to achieve 100%
safety training completion. Team members are encouraged to provide training topic suggestions, which
promotes a synergistic safety culture.
PIPESTONE has a robust and proactive safety auditing program, designed to assist managers and
employees in identifying potential areas of safety risk within their farm. Through the auditing process, we
seek to continuously improve the safety culture as an organization. Our target is 100% audit compliance.
