For many years the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has followed this plan asa part of its established policy. _ This Company maintains an excep- tionally high standard of safety iné surance. It not only provides safety devices but by encouraging the or- ganization of safety committees in all ofits refineries, it has been successful ‘ a reducing accidents in its refineries a point which actually is below that of many businesses naturally less hazardous... - : As an example of its efforts in this direction is cited the fact that all Standard Oil Company (Indiana) re- fineries are provided with elaborate firefighting devices, of which live steam’ and chemicals are notable refinements. , The Directors of the Standard Oil ‘Company Undiana) recognize that an employe who believes himself to be well-treated and secure is a better worker and is more interested in giving full service both to the Com- pany and to the public than is the employe who lacks this feeling of security. ~ The management of this Congpany believes that every constructive measure for the benefit of its em- ployes is a definite factor in. lowering the cost of doing business, in securing greater efficiency, and ultimately lowering prices of its products to the consumer. - . Hazard reduction is but one item,; though an important one, in the Com- pany’scomplete program of attention to the well-being of its empioyes. Other items include liberal compery satiqn, good working conditions, steady wot and insurance in so far as is possible against unemp}oyment. In addition this Company has devised an annuity system to provide for the protection of those who have grown old in its service. The efforts of'the management to provide ways and means of elimin- ating the dangers of a highly hazar- dous occupation is reflected in the enthusiasm of the workers and the whole-hearted endorsement of 26,560 stockholders, not one of whom owns as much~as 10 percent of the total.
