Why Work at Westlake
Our Commitment to Safety

He said, “We have put safety first, and it will remain our number one priority. No job can be so important or urgent that people cannot take time to work safely. Life is precious and irreplaceable.” We take these words to heart everyday and apply a disciplined approach to keeping our employees and communities safe.
