Social responsibility and engagement

• The corrugated industry understands its obligations and role in society beyond simply making fine products.We manage our operations in the safest, most healthful way on behalf of our employees and our communities.
  
  
• The corrugated industry maintains high standards for worker safety. Its OSHA incident rate has fallen over 50% in the last ten years, from 9.8 in 1995 to 4.6 per 200 thousand hours worked in 2005. This performance ranks among the largest improvements and lowest incident rates of packaging material producers. (Bureau of Labor Statistics: www.bls. gov)
  
  
• Corrugated manufacturers give back to local communities through sponsorships and charitable contributions.
  
  
• The corrugated industry supports education and training for future workforces in skilled careers through the International Corrugated Packaging Foundation (ICPF), which has donated over $10 million of equipment and curriculum materials to post-secondary packaging schools.
  
  
• Corrugated manufacturers help communities support recycling efforts through school programs, public outreach, collection programs and more.
