Orchid Chemicals & Pharmaceuticals, one of India’s top pharmaceutical companies, recently signed the World Safety Declaration.  Orchid became the 47th charter signer, joining leaders across industries throughout the world who are dedicated to improving safety in the workplace.

Signers of the World Safety Declaration have made a public commitment to report their challenges, progress and successes at the 18th World Congress on Safety and Health at Work in Seoul, Korea, in 2008.  The World Safety Declaration was initiated by DuPont at the last World Congress in 2005.  

“We are embarking on this journey with great commitment,” said K. Raghavendra Rao, Managing Director.   “We believe we can achieve more through collaboration – and what better safety partner than DuPont?”

“Orchid is both a fast growing leader in the Indian pharmaceutical industry and a leader in safety,” said Jim Weigand — vice president and general manager of DuPont Safety Resources. “Since its inception 14 years ago, Orchid has made safety a core value that is closely linked to business success. We are honored that they have joined this important effort.”
