Our Award-Winning Commitment to Health, Safety, Security
& the Environment
Responsible Care is a global initiative that began in Canada in 1984, was enacted by the U.S. chemical industry in 1988, and today is practiced in 68 economies around the world. Participation in Responsible Care is a condition of membership for ACC Members and Responsible Care Partner companies, all of which have made CEO-level commitments to uphold the program elements.
The Responsible Care Guiding Principles are at the heart of the Responsible Care commitment—through these principles, members and Partners pledge to improve health, safety, security and the environment (HSSE) performance for facilities, processes and products throughout the entire operating system.
Companies also are committed to open and transparent reporting and undergo mandatory headquarters and facility audits to certify their performance.
Since 1988, Responsible Care has helped ACC Member and Partner companies significantly enhance their performance and improve the health and safety of their employees, the communities in which they operate and the environment as a whole.
“Responsible Care means our industry is committed to developing products that benefit society, in safe, secure, environmentally sound facilities,” said ACC President and CEO Cal Dooley. “The companies and individuals that are honored give Responsible Care its credibility and strength – they are leaders in driving continuous improvement in the safety and sustainability of our industry’s products and operations.”
Each year, the American Chemistry Council (ACC) recognizes chemical industry leaders for their exceptional health, safety, security and environmental (HSSE) performance and commitment to sound chemicals management.
Responsible Care award winners qualify based on exemplary performance and are selected by a committee made up of internal and external experts.
The Responsible Care Partner of the Year Award recognizes the superb performance and safety record of companies involved in the distribution, transportation, storage, use, treatment, disposal and/or sales and marketing of chemicals. We were honored to receive the 2018 Responsible Care Partner of the Year Award.
