Sustainability - Community

We maintain a caring culture that thrives on the diversity of our employees, customers, and communities. People are the most significant contributors to the sustainability and success of our company.

We believe that building and maintaining sound relationships with our communities makes us a better, stronger company. Good community relations are built on trust, respect and responsibility.

We make every effort to conduct operations in a safe, clean, and responsible manner and we encourage our employees to volunteer their time and talents to make positive changes everywhere we live and work.

Our approach is informed by and incorporates elements of the United Nations Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights as reflected in the following documents:

Health and Safety

The health and safety of our employees, contractors, neighbors and environment are of paramount importance to us. We believe safety is a shared responsibility, and it is central to everything we do.

  • We put the health and safety of all personnel before production.
  • We eliminate high-severity, high-potential incidents.
  • We maintain and operate a safe, secure and reliable workplace.
  • We actively protect the environment.

Operational Excellence

Our commitment to operating in a safe and responsible manner is exemplified by our Operational Excellence System (OES) — a global framework for managing the health and safety of our employees and contractors as well as operating responsibly within our communities.

With its “plan-do-check-act” methodology, OES helps us conduct our business in a safe, secure, injury-free and environmentally responsible manner, reducing operational risks and promoting regulatory compliance.
