Safety and well-being of Progreso’s employees, customers, and suppliers are pillars and pride of the company’s organizational culture.
To participate in the city’s large-scale drill, Progreso activated the evacuation system, involving all employees at the San Gabriel plant to move to designated assembly points.
This drill allowed to test the effectiveness of emergency response protocols, and identify areas for improvement to implement them before a real situation arises.
In total, 518 people were evacuated in an orderly and efficient manner, distributed across 10 pre-defined meeting points.
This exercise strengthens the culture of prevention at Progreso and contributes to the preparation and coordination of response to any emergency.
These massive exercises are part of the internal civil protection programs of the countries and allow identifying situations that in an emergency could become situations that affect people’s well-being.
Drills identify what to do and how to act in an emergency, allowing to previous verification if the activities prepared are efficient, improving how to behave in an emergency or disaster. This promotes the culture of protection and well-being among members of families, communities, institutions, and private companies.
