Today, September 10, 2024, all Covia locations are participating in a company-wide Safety Day. The 2024 theme is Emergency Preparedness to ensure that Covia team members are exceptionally prepared to respond to any emergency. Sites will participate in emergency response simulations, annual safety performance reviews and discussions on policy and procedure changes. Additional presentations cover upcoming safety and health activities and safety tips for team members at home and on the job.
During Covia's annual Safety Day, each site selects activities that are most relevant to their operations and takes time to focus on key risks known across the company. By participating, all Covia team members support the Safety First value and priorities.
On this year's annual Safety Day, and every day, Covia strives to foster a culture of performance and accountability - one in which every employee understands the important role they play in ensuring a bright and sustainable future for the company, Covia's customers and the communities Covia serves.

Covia
At Covia, we are committed to being more than just a leading provider of high-performance mineral and material solutions – we believe that our company can make a positive difference in the world. This belief is what drives our environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategy, which is influenced by both our journey as an organization and the events in the world around us.
Our commitment to operating as a responsible corporate citizen has been embedded into every aspect of our business for decades and serves as the foundation for Covia’s ESG initiatives. From our operations to our Team Members and the communities in which we live and work, we continue to define WHAT WE’RE MADE OF as more than the materials we produce, but the impact we can make in every interaction.
In 2021, we enhanced our approach toward accelerating ESG performance by developing our formal GOALS THAT INSPIRE: ESG 2030. These 10 goals, broken into our three core areas - Environmental Stewardship, Positive Social Impact and Responsible Governance & Ethics - were developed by Covia Team members across the company and are designed to drive tangible and measurable progress in areas where we can make the most impact.
We have the commitment and strategy in place to drive meaningful progress and we are pledging to make a positive differences for our people, our planet and our communities.
