For Drummond Ltd. it is critical to review its processes, which is why it has different mechanisms that allow it to evaluate the effectiveness of its occupational health and safety management.6 A clear example of this is the Safety Culture Measurement at all of Drummond Ltd.’s operations, which seeks to determine the current state of the safety culture and identify strengths, areas of opportunity and priority recommendations. The measurement process took place through an external consulting firm with global experience that has a methodology for a comprehensive evaluation of elements that help to understand the characteristics of a safety culture, in addition to proposing strategies to achieve world-class safety performance. This is how, through the application of this methodology in 2017, more than 1,200 employees participated, making it possible to achieve the objective of identifying the current status of the safety culture at Drummond Ltd. As a final part of the measurement, Drummond Ltd.’s senior management and the consultants held work sessions to establish the strategy to be implemented, and as a result they formulated a plan of action to develop a safety culture on an inter-dependent level, including:
