Aligned Data Centers Leads with a Strong Workplace Safety Culture

 

The world of data infrastructure has seen a number of rapid changes. As a result, where uptime and efficiency dominate conversations, the importance of a strong workplace safety culture can often be overlooked. But as everyone’s digital lives increasingly depend on these behind-the-scenes giants, the safety of the people maintaining them becomes more than a box to check. It becomes a moral imperative.

It is also about creating a workplace safety culture that values human life as much as prioritizes technological progress. In an industry where high stakes make for slimmer margins for, truly prioritizing safety requires and demands daily commitment.

That’s what a strong workplace safety culture looks like—one built on accountability, trust, and leadership. One leader in this space is Andrew Schaap, CEO of Aligned Data Centers, who brings not only perspective but passion to the conversation—let’s hear what he has to say.
