We are happy to share that Albemarle was recognized with a prestigious 2024 RAEV Award, reflecting Albemarle’s steadfast commitment to the safety and well-being of its employees, and reflecting the hard work of its dedicated carriers, forwarders, and drivers.
At Albemarle, safety is more than a priority; it is a core value that guides all of our operations. From the transportation of products to the activities at our facilities, we continually strive to create a safe environment for one and all. This achievement is the result of the collective effort of every person at Albemarle, and we are extraordinarily proud of this milestone.
Roland Haemmerli, VP of Operations and Country Manager Chile, commented on the importance of teamwork: "When we say that we want to put people at the center, this is an excellent way to reflect it in our daily routine. From the transportation of products, from the Salar to La Negra, to the awareness that our transporters have about road safety."
Luis Muñoz, Logistics Manager for South America, emphasized the team's dedication to this achievement: "In just three months we achieved this with sacrifice, camaraderie and with the goal that each one of us contributes the best of ourselves."
For his part, Rodrigo Gatica, Regional Supply Chain Manager for South America, highlighted the importance of providing the right tools: "It is extremely important to highlight that the company provides all the necessary tools to implement these systems. They are fundamental and clearly help us to improve and to ensure that drivers arrive home in the same way as they left, since someone is always waiting for them at home."
This recognition validates our efforts and encourages us to continue moving forward in our commitment to excellence in safety. As Luz Infante, Executive Secretary of Conaset, pointed out: "The fact that we can all generate this cultural change in the company, giving it relevance, makes the people who work there feel calmer, safer and supported."
Together we work toward a New Era of Lithium!
