Safety by design
The stand-alone hoist can be used to remove large tool components if they fail. This eliminates the need for manual lifting of these heavy parts, minimizing the risk of ergonomic injury such as back strain.
Health and safety program priorities
In 2002, OSHA recordkeeping rules underwent a dramatic change—and our Occupational Health organization kept pace. We seamlessly integrated new definitions and classifications worldwide. We made necessary upgrades to our databases. And we implemented other business process improvements such as eMedical Monitoring, converting a cumbersome, paper-based system into an efficient web-based application.

New management challenges also emerged, including the need for biothreat and business continuity responses. To meet these challenges, our worldwide Occupational Health team partnered with our industrial hygiene professionals to develop programs and training for the use of anthrax testing equipment and for first-response procedures for Intel. This joint team also worked with Intel site response teams to refine our approach to managing potential local responses and to enhance our site-based business continuity processes.

Also in 2002, the American Psychological Association recognized Intel with Resilient Workplace Honors for the quality of our business practices and also for the employee support systems that we put into place following the September 11 terrorist attacks.

Our health and productivity initiative grew substantially in 2002. We provided more than 30 health initiative programs ranging from fitness challenges and flu clinics to mammogram events for our worldwide employees. And use of our interactive health web site increased by 50%, with 24,000 users.
