Dickow Pumpen awarded with seal of approval "Sicher mit System" (Save with System)

Dickow Pumpen establishes an occupational safety management system and receives the first voluntary "Sicher mit System" (Safe with a System) certification from the Berufsgenossenschaft Holz und Metall (BGHM) for its special commitment to occupational safety and health for its employees.

Occupational safety is a legal and social obligation and a particularly important topic for metalworking companies. The Berufsgenossenschaft Holz Metall (BGHM) supports its 218,000 member companies in complying with these regulations. By receiving the "Sicher mit System" seal of approval, Dickow Pumpen shows that its commitment goes beyond what is required by the BGHM and sets an example with regard to the safety and health of its employees.


"We are very proud of what we have achieved so far. In the 112-year consistency of Dickow Pumpen, the employees in particular are the pillars and supports that make the success of the family-owned company possible and ensure productivity and quality. Therefore, the safety and health of all employees is the most important asset, which already in the past and also in the future must be preserved and continuously improved. We are all the more pleased that an effective occupational health and safety management system has now been established in the company and that we are displaying the "Sicher mit System" seal of quality to the outside world," says Managing Director Jörg Bornemann.


The basic legally binding occupational safety requirements include, for example, clear escape routes, access to fire extinguishers, cleanliness and tidiness typical of the industry, and ensuring occupational health screening. By introducing an occupational health and safety management system, Dickow Pumpen has optimized its occupational health and safety organization through additional factors such as the provision of an occupational health and safety specialist and other safety officers, annual training courses for employees on the subject of occupational health and safety, regular testing of all work equipment, machines and devices used, including the storage of the relevant test certificates.


The certificate is valid for three years, after which it can be reassessed. With the "Sicher mit Sytem" seal of approval, Dickow Pumpen is setting sail for further certification in accordance with ISO 45001, which is planned for 2022.
