Boart Longyear is pleased to announce its company-wide global accomplishment of more than 10,000,000 consecutive man-hours worked with no Lost Time Injuries (LTI) and one-year completely LTI-free as of 5 July 2019. Boart Longyear employs approximately 4,900 personnel including supervisors, drillers, driller assistants, mechanics, technicians, and welders, manufacturing plant personnel, distribution centers and warehouse personnel, and support staff that are clearly committed to working safely every day. In 2018, the company-wide LTIR matched an all-time low at 0.10 LTIR, and lowest number of Lost Time Injuries on record.

I am incredibly proud of the employees at Boart Longyear. I acknowledge each one of them for their hard work, for embracing and living our high safety standards and world-class safety programs, and the way everyone takes responsibility for their own safety and keeping each other safe.
