Prioritizing Safety at Caravan: A Commitment to a Healthy, Injury-Free Workplace

At Caravan, safety isn’t just a catchphrase or a box to be checked—it’s a core value that shapes everything we do. It goes beyond policies and procedures; it’s woven into the fabric of our work culture. We firmly believe that all incidents can be prevented, and this belief guides our relentless pursuit of a healthy, injury-free environment. This commitment to safety is not just about being reactive; it’s about being proactive and ensuring safety is not first or last—but always.

Safety: A Leadership-Driven Culture

Creating and maintaining a safe work environment is a leadership-driven initiative at Caravan. Our leaders set the tone by modeling the behaviors and decisions that prioritize safety. From the top down, every decision considers the potential impact on the well-being of our employees, ensuring that we address hazards before they lead to incidents. Leadership isn’t just about managing people; it’s about leading with the intention of keeping every individual safe, and that responsibility extends across all departments and roles.

Everyone’s Responsibility

While leadership plays a pivotal role in safety initiatives, the responsibility for maintaining a safe workplace falls on everyone. Every Caravan employee has a part to play in upholding our safety standards. Whether it’s identifying hazards, following proper protocols, or looking out for one another, teamwork is essential. Safety is truly a collective effort, and only with the cooperation of every individual can we ensure that our workplaces remain both safe and healthy.

The Safety Coin: A Symbol of Commitment

One of the ways we reinforce our commitment to safety at Caravan is through the use of the Safety Coin. The Safety Coin is a symbolic tool used to remind everyone, from our leadership to our frontline workers, that safety is always top of mind. It’s more than just a physical token; it represents accountability and responsibility. New employees receive their safety coin in their new hire training to affirm and set the expectation that safety should always be our highest concern. The coin is an every day reminder that we are all responsible for safety. Every day. When you commit to carrying our safety coin, you commit to prioritizing safety for yourself and our team.

This system promotes active participation and engagement, ensuring that safety isn’t an afterthought but a shared responsibility. The idea is simple: when you hold the Safety Coin, you’re not just responsible for your own safety, but for the safety of your colleagues as well. It fosters a culture of ownership and encourages everyone to actively think about safety every day.

A Healthy, Injury-Free Workplace is Possible

At Caravan, we hold ourselves to the highest standard when it comes to safety. We believe that every workplace incident is preventable with the right mindset, commitment, and action. By empowering every employee to take ownership of safety and supporting them with leadership-driven initiatives, we’re confident that we can create a workplace where injuries are minimized and everyone goes home safe, every day.

Safety at Caravan is not first or last—it’s always. Together, we will continue to build a culture that prioritizes health and safety, and through tools like the Safety Coin, we remind ourselves of the important role we each play in creating a secure work environment for all.
