ADM Celebrates Safety Record with 10th Annual Event

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Archer Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM) today began celebrating the company’s 10^th annual Global Safety and Health Week, a week-long global event dedicated to reflecting on each location’s safety accomplishments and hosting events and meetings to help focus on areas where improvements are possible.

Since 2006, ADM has reduced recordable incidents by 66 percent and lost-work day incidents by 89 percent. 2015 was the safest year in ADM’s history.
