The foundation of our culture
Industrial workplace safety is rarely ignored, but despite best intentions, it can often be deprioritized. With over three decades of experience in implementing safety processes throughout maintenance procedures, we have the people and strategy you need to help you implement a robust and safe maintenance program.
At ATS, safety and overall employee well-being is our number one cultural commitment. We think it, feel it, and live it every day. Our Beyond Zero safety culture prioritizes four key areas:
Physical Well-Being
Financial Well-Being
Social Well-Being
Emotional Well-Being
Our journey to beyond zero
At ATS, safety ties into everything we do but we know safety needs to go even beyond the factory walls. Through the integration of a new safety excellence program, our employees can holistically improve their overall wellbeing.
