Total Recordable Injuries and Illnesses
More detail available >
(Recordable injuries per 200,000 hours worked)
**Excludes injuries/illnesses that do not meet DuPont criteria for measuring safety performance 1998 through 2005 (estimated) Injury/Illness statistics for employees reflect expanded reporting of cumulative musculoskeletal disorders. Comparative statistics are not available for years prior to 1998. |
Global Carcinogenic Air Emissions
More detail available >
(Millions of Pounds)
Data indicate a 92% reduction of air carcinogen emissions since 1987. |
Significant Environmental, Process and Transportation Incidents
More detail available >
A Major SHE Incident is a significant environmental, process or transportation incident by DuPont definition. Incidents that meet both Environmental and Process definitions are counted as single Major SHE Incidents. Fire incidents not included before 2004. |
Global Greenhouse Gases
More detail available >
1990 baseline and all years adjusted to reflect Invista divestiture. Reflects a 60% reduction since 1990. Prior to the Invista separation, DuPont achieved a 72% reduction below the original 1990 baseline. |
Global Energy Consumption
More detail available >
(Indexed to 1990 = 100)
Global energy consumption is down 6% since 1990, despite a 41% increase in production. |
U.S. Toxic Release Inventory Waste & Emissions
More detail available >
(Millions of pounds)
Millions of pounds - Data as reported to the U.S. EPA. 286 new chemicals added in 1995. Total waste as generated first reported in 1991. 2004 data reflects Invista separation. |
