Best Safety Worker Award for
Indo-MIM
Indo-MIM accords top priority to
worker safety. Safety practises fol-
lowed by the company have their
focus on zero accident, and the em-
ployees are motivated and driven
by the safety events held at regular
intervals.
The Karnataka State Safety In-
stitute in Bangalore conducts a
State-level Best Safety Worker
competition every year for all the
manufacturing industries in differ-
ent sectors. This year’s competition
was held in February in which Indo-
MIM participated and was well re-
warded.
Selection of the company safety
worker began in the first week of
January. He was none other than
Mr. Ramprasad. K, a Senior Techni-
cian - Maintenance Department, for
the past 13 years. He is extremely
committed towards safety and im-
plemented numerous safe working
practices at the company during
2011. His significant contributions
are in the field of proc-
ess, equipment and em-
ployee safety. He has
shown keen interest
and initiative in learn-
ing and implementing
the 5S, 3M, Kaizen,
cost reduction, produc-
tivity, and automation,
besides safety. He has also been
instrumental in implementing the
hydraulic and pneumatic concepts at
the floor level.
Mr. Ramprasad was selected as
the Best Safety Worker in the me-
dium-scale industry by the Institute
this year. The prize was presented by
