Ensuring the health, safety, security, and environmental sustainability of our operations is a core priority for our organization.
Our Health, Safety, Security, and Environment (HSSE) Policy highlights our dedication to preventing all accidents, injuries, and occupational illnesses, while protecting the environment. We are committed to continuously improving safety practices across our subsidiaries through technological advancements, organizational strategies, and fostering a proactive safety culture.
The corporate HSSE Department leads the development of guidelines and sets minimum standards applicable to all subsidiaries. We establish clear performance objectives and monitor our progress to ensure ongoing improvements.
A key component of our strategy involves creating detailed HSSE manuals tailored to each operational unit, serving as the basis for developing localized management systems at each site.
To promote learning from incidents, we maintain a global incident database. This system allows us to record and analyze all accidents, near misses, unsafe conditions, and behaviors. When necessary, HSSE alerts are issued, shared with relevant sites, and discussed with our workforce.
We perform internal HSSE audits to verify compliance with our standards and carefully analyze comprehensive HSSE data, including both leading (proactive) and lagging (reactive) key performance indicators (KPIs).
A fundamental part of our commitment to maintaining a safe, healthy, and environmentally responsible workplace is the continuous training and education of our employees. All new hires, contractors, and visitors receive HSSE orientation before starting work or visiting to ensure they understand our safety protocols and environmental practices.
