Safety is our top priority

We work proactively to secure a safe work environment for our people

The foundation for any successful business is a safe workplace. Therefore, safety at work is our number one priority. We value our colleagues and continuously work on improving safety to prevent injuries and illness across all our offices and Operating Business Units (OBUs). A safe work place is the starting point to make GPV a great place to work and to keep delivering on our promises to our customers.

Our LTI target

Our current LTI (Lost Time Injury) rate is 0.6.

Our target for 2028 is 0.7 and eventually, we want to reach zero LTIs.

We are already at a good level, but there is always work to be done. To reach an even lower LTI rate, we focus on reporting near misses and unsafe conditions. By registering near misses, we can initiate actions to eliminate the potential risk of harm or damage. Every reported near miss provides an opportunity to identify weaknesses in safety protocols and make improvements to avoid future incidents.

A safety culture

Our people come first and therefore, safety comes first. As an employer, we are obliged to ensure safe working conditions for our people. It all starts with a high degree of awareness on how we can prevent unsafe conditions.

We believe that safety is a shared responsibility, and we encourage and expect all our people to get familiar with safety procedures and act responsibly at work.

Safety Awareness Campaign

In November 2023, we launched our first safety awareness campaign, and we have made it easy to report unsafe conditions through QR codes placed around the production facilities and offices. With this, we do our utmost to ensure that everyone returns home in the same condition as they went to work.

Alongside the campaign, we launched a Safety Competition. For each campaign period, the OBU with the highest number of LTI per employee won a prize.

In September 2024, we launched a new Safety Awareness Competition with a specific focus on machine safety.
