Our members hold the key to safety at the Co-op Refinery.
Nothing is more important to Refinery workers than safety. Our top goal is to keep our neighbours, our co-workers, and our Refinery safe. Our Refinery is more complex than most others. It requires years, not hours, of experience to run this plant safely. Processing fuel is dangerous work – that’s why we are highly trained and highly experienced. Our jobs can’t be done by just anyone.
