Why safety matters
Safety is not only at the heart of everything we do, it is also one of our Otis Absolutes. Our commitment to safety dates to our beginnings as a company and our founder’s invention of the elevator safety brake.
We adhere to the highest industry standards for safety; standards that we helped develop when they were first issued by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.1

The safety of our colleagues
For a global organization of 71,000 people, Otis still feels very much like a family and we want each family member to get home safe every day.
We do this by enhancing our safety culture, standardizing tools and processes, educating and engaging colleagues and field partners, using advanced technology to improve service while reducing risks for our field professionals, and responding proactively to COVID-19.
The safety of our passengers
Otis moves 2.3 billion people a day, individuals who trust us to get them to their destination safely, every time.
Our focus on the safety and comfort of our passengers is evident in everything we do: how we design and test our products, how we deliver service, and how quickly we are able to innovate, bringing new health and safety solutions to market in the face of unprecedented challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic.
