安全面的工作开展

Logistics Safety

To prevent damage to society at large due to logistics accidents, we are promoting activities to assure logistics safety in the aspects of product shipment and storage on three fronts: organization, working place, and drills.

Organization
We organized the Logistics Safety Conference and mount approaches to assurance of safety together with cooperating logistics companies. In fiscal 2008, we carried out transport safety drills premised on an accident with an overturned tank lorry and safety training spanning all warehousing work including storage of hazardous substances (for a total of two times with 39 participants).
Working place
In fiscal 2008, the manager of the Logistics Department executed safety inspections at all Kuraray plants, as they did in fiscal 2007, and otherwise labored to maintain and improve working place safety.
Drills
In fiscal 2008, we conducted a drill in product recovery and accident reporting on the assumption of a leakage accident at our Niigata Plant. The drill utilized actual vehicles and materials, and was carried out with the participation of all cooperating logistics companies.
