Canada’s Certificates of Recognition program sets safety standards in every province, Fountain said, and Fountain has focused on earning COR for all of its retail locations.
“It’s important to recognize that each person entering a Fountain Tire, whether it be a customer or associate, is entering a secure and safe environment,” said Janice Robertson, Fountain’s safety manager. “We display our safety policies in every Fountain Tire showroom, and augment them with a Safety Communication Centre for people to get more information or provide feedback.”
Fountain invites customers, contractors and employees to communicate safety issues, including its Safety Helpdesk, email, and a 24/7 phone hotline.
It also has “Near Miss” cards at each location that anyone can complete and present to the store. (Tire Review/Akron)
