Refreshed and expanded access to our company-wide Safety Management System course to all Delta employees and specific contract employees

Our policy is “Safety First, Always.” Safety, operational reliability and customer service have been Delta’s foundation for more than 100 years. That commitment to providing safe and secure operations remains our fundamental obligation to our customers, colleagues and communities. Safe working conditions and behaviors are a nonnegotiable principle for all Delta people, because providing exceptional care and service begins with keeping everyone safe.

Our safety culture is a foundational value at Delta. It shows up in everything we do – in how we run our operation, how we serve our customers and how we care for each other.”
