CHICAGO, ILLLINOIS, U.S. —  Archer Daniels Midland Company ( ADM)  began celebrating the company’s 10th annual Global Safety and Health Week on June 13, a week-long global event dedicated to reflecting on each location’s safety accomplishments and hosting events and meetings to help focus on areas where improvements are possible. 

Since 2006, ADM has reduced recordable incidents by 66% and lost-work day incidents by 89%. 2015 was the safest year in ADM’s history. 


“We are proud that safety and our Global Safety and Health Week activities have truly become a cornerstone of our culture, but our work won’t be complete until we have eliminated 100 percent of the incidents and injuries companywide,” said Juan Luciano, ADM chairman and chief executive officer. “We have an ongoing journey to zero, and taking time to reflect on what we’ve done well and also what we can do better in the future is an important step towards realizing that goal.”
