Program for Preventing Falls and Accidents with Vendors
In Central America we installed anchoring systems in 100% of business unit ceilings. A safety manual for hazardous work was implemented. These guidelines are included in our service vendor agreements, and 582 vendors were informed through training for managers and owners of contractor companies.
Fire Prevention Program
We focused efforts on reducing/correcting opportunity areas identified during fire risk inventories conducted in 2016. With an approximate investment of19 MXN Million, Maintenance was able to correct the different issues identified, thus enabling Central America operation to close the year withreduction in fires nd flame outbreaks.
