To reach this aspiration, we are committed to:

  • Maintain a global Health and Safety Management System designed to continuously improve our performance and actively manage risk in our business
  • Drive for operational discipline by instilling a mindset of safe execution and follow-up
  • Identify & communicate best practices to our employees, contractors and customers
  • Implement reporting standards for employees and contractors and undertake audits
  • Provide quality supervision in the field to coach and mentor employees and contractors on health and safety
