Directing the attention and energy of 200,000 people working in 50 countries around the world at one time on the topic of industrial health and safety is no easy task. It takes planning, coordination and, most importantly, the initiative and ingenuity of the employees in each individual facility. And that is exactly what the global industrial manufacturer, Saint-Gobain, did this past summer.
