RAFFMETAL PROMOTES A CULTURE OF HEALTH AND SAFETY WITH A PROJECT FOR EMPLOYEES, FAMILIES, AND LOCAL SCHOOLS

May 23, 2025

Raffmetal has recently started an important health and safety training project through first aid courses aimed at its employees, their families, and primary school students from various municipalities in the Valle Sabbia area.

The initiative, organized with the support of the non-profit organization Valtrompia Soccorso, is part of a broader corporate path aimed at fostering an aware and participatory culture of health and safety.
The project was designed to be cross-cutting, with the goal of raising awareness among employees, families, and younger generations about the importance of knowing how to act in emergency situations—not only at work but also at home and in everyday life.

  • For adults, a structured 4-hour course was held at the company over two days in May 2025, divided into theoretical and practical sessions. First aid manikins were used to practice aid techniques on both adults and children. Various emergency scenarios were analyzed, including seizures, electric shocks, burns, fractures, and airway obstructions.
     
  • At the same time, “sentinel” classes, in line with the guidelines of the Ministry of Italian Education (2nd and 4th grade of primary school), were offered a tailor-made classroom program for children: simple explanations and practical activities suitable for their age. An educational leaflet was also distributed to be completed together with parents and used as a guide in case of need.

This initiative further confirms Raffmetal's commitment to promoting health and safety as a core value, both inside and outside the workplace. In 2024, more than 32,000 hours were dedicated to training, of which about 40% are focused on healty and safety.

Investing in a health and safety culture means taking on a tangible responsibility—a shared value built through training, commitment, and mutual respect. It is an act of responsibility toward oneself, colleagues, and the community, and an investment in collective well-being both in and outside the workplace.

 

In case of emergency, it is essential to act quickly and with clarity. Here's what to do:

  • Call the emergency number (112 if you are in an European Union Country, available 24/7, free of charge, and accessible from any landline or mobile phone).
     
  • Or use the AREU app (Where ARE U), which allows you to contact emergency services while automatically sending your location—especially useful if verbal communication is difficult. Thanks to GPS geolocation, the app automatically transmits your location to the 112 Emergency Operations Center of the host country, facilitating a prompt response.

Always be sure to provide clear information and wait for the operator's instructions.
