The Rogers Corp. R&D Safety Committee hosted a successful 2^nd annual Safety Stand Down Day in Rogers, CT, on June 7, 2017. Approximately 85 employees from R&D, the Innovation Center, Marketing, and Human Resources participated.

The day’s events also included a laboratory safety game, which addressed hazard identification and correct procedures for inspections, as well as a safety video regarding the indicators that lead to workplace accidents. Chuck Weatherbee, EHS Engineer at Rogers, presented a hierarchy of protection and reviewed the Rogers Corp. Chemical Hygiene Plan.
