First fishing company to implement a program to reduce mistakes at work under the international SafeStart methodology

Lima, May 19, 2021.- Reaffirming the commitment to the health and safety of all its employees, Pesquera Diamante, has been deploying an important Safety Awareness Program with the main objective of reducing critical errors.

Safety at work is currently a necessary issue in all companies. The fishing sector is no stranger to the fact that its operating, administrative and crew personnel are exposed to minor and serious incidents. In this sense, a solid, transversal and powerful program of Health and Safety at Work is needed that prevents and mitigates the risks associated with fishing and productive activity.

Pesquera Diamante joins SafeStart, a leading international security company, with the objective that each Diamante employee identifies and knows the dangers to which they are exposed in their day-to-day lives, to handle them in a conscious way and avoid mistakes. The program focuses on transforming the organizational culture with a focus on safety; Through training and techniques of the SafeStart methodology, it will be possible to reduce critical errors throughout the company, improving the concentration of employees in their work activities and even in their daily lives.

Pesquera Diamante reports that the entire implementation process takes 4 years and the goal during this first year is to reduce work accidents by 20%, and after that, continue to have a sustained reduction in accidents.

The fishing company says that its 1,200 employees throughout the country will be able to train under this preventive methodology.

"We are the first fishing company to implement this important SafeStart program, because the safety of employees is our priority," said Pablo Trapunsky, General Manager of Pesquera Diamante.
