Salisbury, Md. — This week, Perdue Farms is joining companies across the country in observing the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)’s Safe + Sound Week, a nationwide event that celebrates workplace health and safety programs. For Perdue, it’s more than a national observance, it’s a reaffirmation of the company’s
unwavering commitment to ensuring every associate goes home safe and healthy, everyday.

Across Perdue’s facilities, farms, and offices, teams are engaging in activities designed to strengthen safety awareness and reinforce the company’s proactive culture of prevention. Programming includes hydration and ergonomics workshops, training around identifying distractions and avoiding shortcuts, and the introduction of new Stop, Think, Act. commitment cards—tools designed to keep safety top of mind well beyond this campaign.

“At Perdue, safety is deeply personal. It’s not just a policy—it’s a promise,” said Kevin McAdams, Perdue Farms CEO. “We owe it to every associate, and to the families counting on them, to make sure they return home safely. Safe + Sound Week gives us a moment to pause, reflect, and recommit to a culture where safety is everyone’s responsibility.”

As part of its ongoing safety journey, Perdue has achieved several milestones in recent
months, including:

• 270,000 safety inspections conducted and completed for FY 2025
• 64,000 safety huddles with our associates, totaling more than 300,000 minutes spent on critical safety conversations
• 41 Poultry and Pork Industry Safety Awards since 2024

Perdue’s safety philosophy is rooted in prevention, accountability, and continuous improvement. The company’s people-focused culture empowers associates at all levels to take ownership of safety—not just during national observances, but every day.

With executive sponsorship and local leadership engagement, Safe + Sound Week at Perdue reinforces the company’s values and underscores the vital role safety plays in delivering on its mission: to be the most trusted name in food and agricultural products
