In order to maintain and raise its high
standards of manufacturing excellence, CNH Industrial N.V. (NYSE:
CNHI / MI: CNHI) applies the principles of World Class
Manufacturing (WCM), an innovative program for continuous
manufacturing improvement originating from Japan, across all its
global production sites.
The WCM system is intended to enhance efficiency
across every aspect of the production process with the ultimate aim
of seeking to eliminate all types of waste and loss moving towards
zero injuries, zero defects, zero breakdowns and zero waste. The
program is structured around ten pillars which encompass a variety
of topics ranging from safety to the environment and from logistics
to product engineering. Regular third-party audits are carried out
and the pillars are scored from zero to five resulting in a series
of awards or medals – bronze, silver, gold, and finally world
class.
This article explores the first and one of the
most crucial pillars – safety – the very foundation of WCM. While
acknowledging the importance that traditional safety measures play
in the workplace, the real objective of this Top Story is to take a
look at some of the more innovative practices that are being
adopted in CNH Industrial’s plants around the world. A highlight of
the piece is a particularly striking description of a virtual
reality health and safety training session in full swing at one of
the Company’s facilities in Valladolid, Spain.
