EHS Operations.

Consistent with the importance we place on human health and personal safety, we have safety personnel at the corporate, business unit, and facility level. Our board reviews our safety initiatives at the start of each regularly scheduled board meeting, and our key leadership reviews safety matters at the start of each quarterly town hall meeting. Training is provided on an ongoing basis to relevant associates, including executives and other key associates, on human health and associate safety matters. For example, associates receive training on proper ergonomics and handling of hazardous materials to prevent injuries, environmental contamination, and damage to products or equipment, and we have invested in disaster and other emergency preparedness training and routinely practice drills.

We have also adopted Safe Work Practices at our manufacturing facilities to help provide a safe and healthy place to work. Among other things, our Safe Work Practices address use of protective equipment, housekeeping, and workplace condition and incident reporting, and corrective action reporting. Our businesses and certain facilities conform to internationally recognized standards, including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 50001, and OHSAS 18001.

We measure safety using numerous established metrics and report various key performance indicators to senior leadership at both the corporate and business unit level. For 2019, our continuing business operations saw 0.59 recordable incidents per 200,000 hours worked. The rate has decreased for each of the past six full years.

We have numerous recent and ongoing initiatives to reduce incidents and promote human health and personal safety. In 2020, we diverted three tons of waste from the landfill from our DJO manufacturing site in Vista, California, and in 2018 and 2019 we:

Established reporting for major injuries, dangerous occurrences (which are a leading indicator of major injuries), and near misses, and enhanced our related data collection processes, trend analysis, and incident response capabilities
Developed and implemented a fire safety checklist in all global plants
Completed our first Summer of Safety campaign in 2018 and continued this initiative in 2019
Developed and began the rollout of a new driver safety policy, metrics, and communication program
Established monthly EHS leader calls and quarterly all-hands global safety reviews
Enhanced our focus on additional high hazards, specifically ergonomics (hoists, cranes, lifting, and hand safety), electrical, and flammable metals
Introduced additional sustainability metrics and enhanced our environmental management strategy

Many of our business units have set objectives for key environmental aspects, such as lowering energy and water use, and eliminating hazardous substances. Our life cycle approach enables us to balance opportunities with risks and make choices that contribute value to our economies, our natural environments, and our communities.

We have adopted a Code of Conduct for Business Partners that sets out the expectations and standards that apply to any agents, distributors, dealers, contractors, intermediaries, joint venture partners, suppliers, and other business partners doing business with Enovis. Among other things, the Code of Conduct for Business Partners addresses health, safety, and the environment.
