This Self-Training and Competency Assessment Guide (STAG) on self-manage health and safety at work aims to contribute to make of the Ingenio Adolfo Lopez Mateos a safe workplace.
The STAG ensures that people working in the mill are able to eliminate, reduce or isolate the different types of risks in the mill and act in accordance with established standards. The generation and application of proposals to improve safety conditions at work, are the core expected results, along with a safe performance of trained people.
There are two sections in the guide: self-assessment and explanation. The self-assessment
section begins with the expected results, measured by key indicators of the area, both in processing (cost, quality) and social aspects (accidents, absenteeism).
Generic associated knowledge is addressed, referring to knowledge related to the set of defined performance. Base performances, what should be avoided and outstanding performances are presented as well. This is the core of self-evaluation. Improvement proposals that have arisen during the application of self-evaluation have been incorporated.
In the explanation section, you will find the same structure as in the self-assessment chapter with questions and exercises answered and, in some cases, extended in content. This allows to counteract the responses obtained in the self-evaluation and the expected and indicated ones by the standard.
