Environment, Health and Safety Policy
POLICY:
It is Sealed Air's policy to conduct its business in compliance with applicable health, safety, and environmental laws. The health and safety of our employees, customers, and communities and prevention of pollution are among Sealed Air’s primary concerns. Sealed Air is committed to continual improvement, providing safe working conditions for our employees, and to promoting the safe design, use and handling of Sealed Air products. Each employee is expected to promote these goals in his or her tasks. We also work toward safety and environmental excellence as an integral part of our World Class Manufacturing program.
Each Division President has ultimate responsibility for the administration of EHS programs and regulatory compliance; however, compliance with this Policy is the responsibility of every Sealed Air employee.
