Safety Always

Safety is at the heart of everything we do, and prioritizing it across all aspects of our work gives us a strong competitive edge. We ensure that our products, services, and solutions create safe material flows for our customers.

Our commitment to safety extends from our employees to everyone we work with, including suppliers, subcontractors, and all those interacting with our products. We embed safety and security into every part of our operations—from manufacturing and installations to maintenance, office work, remote work, and travel.

By using our products, solutions, and services, customers not only enhance safety but also boost the efficiency and productivity of their operations.

Safety Observations

Through the implementation of our safety program and other ongoing initiatives, we have achieved significant progress. In 2023, we set a goal to increase the number of health and safety observations, and we succeeded in doubling the previous year’s total, reaching 906 Health and Safety Observations. Our "Observe it, address it" approach ensures that we never ignore an unsafe situation or action. We are committed to working safely – every time, without exception.

Safe Workplace

At Ensto, we are committed to improving our health and safety management. We follow our internal policies and comply with related legislation, regulations, and other applicable requirements. Our approach to managing health and safety is to proactively prepare for different risk scenarios. To reach our goal of becoming an accident-free workplace, we develop our safety procedures e.g. through internal and external audits, risk mappings, regular health and safety trainings, and gathering health & safety observations through organized HSE Walk & Talks.

Employee Development

At Ensto, we empower employees to guide their own development through training suggestions and biannual iGROW discussions. These meetings focus on reviewing achievements, setting goals, and fostering personal and professional growth. We provide leadership training, webinars, and a senior specialist program, along with an internal mentoring initiative.
