Safety and Quality
Our vision is to be a company that is incident free, delivers on our promises to our customers, and leaves the environments and communities in which we operate better than we found them.
At every level of our organization, we lead with a commitment to operating safely and delivering quality products and services. This is embedded in our culture and everything we do.
Demonstrating Our Commitment to Safety
Safety is a fundamental component of our culture. We do not take shortcuts when it comes to the safety of our employees or those around us. To guide us on our journey to be incident-free, we have a suite of programs embedded into our overall operational management system:
IOGP Life-Saving Rules
Identify hazards, manage risk, and reduce incidents
The IOGP Life-Saving Rules were strategically developed to improve human performance and raise awareness of the high-risk activities most likely to result in serious injury or fatality. The IOGP Life-Saving Rules are critical directives we must abide by to protect ourselves and our colleagues from harm.
Each IOGP Life-Saving Rule consists of a simple icon and descriptive text, with additional detailed guidance to explain why the rule is important and what aspects workers and supervisors must focus on. Each rule is also linked to controls and barriers which, if used properly, can prevent significant injuries and fatal incidents.
