Print this Article | Send to Colleague
Safety is not just a buzzword for the pulp, paper, and packaging industries—it's critical to operations and to the industry’s collective future. For an inspired group of TAPPI members and safety professionals, that was the motivation behind a new TAPPI Technical Information Paper (TIP) that outlines a proven approach to safety training that any mill can use. PIMA TIP 1502-01 Improving Safety Training - A Hands-on Approach represents a new category for TIPs and the first from the PIMA division.
The guest for this newest episode of TAPPI’s Better Together podcast, hosted by Paper360° Magazine Editorial Director Jan Bottiglieri, is Kurt Mehlberg, quality solutions manager for Domtar, Resolute, and Paper Excellence. Kurt is also a recipient of the Division Leadership and Service Award for TAPPI's PIMA Division. He had a big hand in developing this new TIP with other members of PIMA's Safety Committee. As Kurt says, "We're all on that safety journey towards zero"—there is no other acceptable goal for any mill or plant. Kurt shares more about this TIP's development process and why the effort has been so beneficial.
