ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND SAFETY

The manufacture of automotive body parts on a commercial scale presents many safety concerns. The equipment used can be dangerous if not properly operated; the parts themselves are sharp and sometimes heavy. Repetitive motion and long work hours can also add to the difficulty of maintaining a safe work environment.

Today Futaba Indiana of America's safety, as measured by several different key indicators, is better than ever. With ongoing input from Team Members about how to increase safety through training, process and physical plant improvements we hope to continue this trend.

ISO 14001 CERTIFICATION

Futaba Indiana of America is dedicated to ensuring a safe, environmentally friendly workplace for our Team Members and the Community. In addition to the various ongoing safety initiatives mentioned above, FIA achieved ISO 14001 certification on December 28, 2005. ISO 14001 is the international standard that specifies requirements for an effective environmental management system (EMS). Since then we have maintained this certification through annual audits.

Below is FIA's environmental policy which was developed as part of the certification process.
