SAFETY CULTURE

You may expect to hear about themes such as “safety” and “quality” from a company providing technical expertise and on-site service.  But at Cooper, we don’t just talk the talk.  We consider safety and quality to be among our core customer deliverables.  It is the mindset of Cooper’s leadership, disseminated throughout the entire organization.  It’s not about company pride, nor is it about marketing.  It’s about doing the right thing for the customer, as well as for our team members.
