Dairy Processing - December 2021 - 58

FOOD SAFETY
New era of SAFETY
Dairy processors are actively working to keep their employees safe.

T
here are nearly 1 million men and women working
in dairy processing plants across North America and
keeping those people safe and healthy on the job is
critical to a company's success.
Dairy processors are committed to providing their
employees with a safe working environment. Companies
are constantly working to improve their employees' safety
on a day-to-day basis. Promoting a culture of safety fosters
employee productivity and engagement, which is vital to
profitability and long-term business success.
However, nothing has put the spotlight on employee safety
like the COVID-19 pandemic. Since March 2020, companies
have had to put their employee safety protocols to the test
and quickly adapt to new guidelines set forth by government
agencies, including the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
In January 2021, OSHA issued new guidance for employers
in non-healthcare settings on how to implement a coronavirus

protection program and better identify risks which could lead
to the spread of the virus in the workplace. It outlines 16 steps
for creating a safer, healthier workplace.
Dairy processors are taking active steps to ensure the
continued health and safety of their workforce. HP Hood
LLC, Lynnfield, Mass., announced in March 2021 it would be
using the Appian Workforce Safety solution to support safely
returning 3,387 employees to the workplace across 15 sites.
Appian Workforce Safety provides an automated approach
for safely returning to onsite work, including contact
tracing, COVID-19 testing, vaccination insights, incident case
management and aggregate health reporting.
" Throughout the pandemic, our first priority has been
ensuring the health and safety of our employees, " said Jean
McGurl, senior director of human resources at Hood. " Once
we established how to do that, we realized we needed
a software solution to help us implement and enforce
those policies. "
