At Constellation, we integrate safety and health into every level of our company, beginning with each individual employee. Every day, our employees perform a wide range of critical work activities which are inherently dangerous work. Through the strength of our safety programs and the commitment of our employees and leadership, Constellation achieves top-tier safety performance. We reinforce safe work practices and identify potential risks before an incident occurs through peer-to-peer and manager safety observations. By recording safety observations, documenting near misses and tracking incident trends, we systematically identify issues and pinpoint improvement opportunities.
Engaging our employees on safety is a critical component of creating our safety culture. One way we motivate employee involvement in safety innovations is through Safety Achievement Awards. The awards are peer-nominated and awarded to employees who go beyond their normal job duties to make work safer and, in some cases, to improve public safety as well. On behalf of each winner, Constellation donates to an environmental or safety-related nonprofit selected by the team members. Donations are also made on behalf of the Honorable Mention teams for environment and safety.
