SAFETY

Getting the Right Results, the Right Way At ADM, we’re earning the right results the right way – safely. The safety of our colleagues is of the utmost importance to us. This means that we must, and will, operate in a safe manner where colleagues go home safe every day. A Singular Focus on Safety Wherever we work and however our jobs lead us into other areas of corporate responsibility, everyone at ADM has a role to play – and an everyday mission – to help move the Company one step closer to Zero. Here are some highlights from around the globe: In Canada, employees found that consistently wearing work gloves reduced hand injuries 85 percent. Learn more.

2007 Highlights We closed our fiscal year with double-digit improvement in the rates of both lost workdays and recordable incidents. We achieved zero lost workdays during Global Safety Week in April and had our best-ever performance for that full month. We achieved zero recordable incidents at 275 ADM facilities. We launched a new global Safety & Health Action Plan to ensure we continue to make progress towards zero incidents, zero injuries, every day.
