How you can support our safety culture

A strong safety culture is a shared responsibility. Here’s how you can contribute during HSE Awareness Week and throughout the year:

  • Managers: Dedicate time with your teams to discuss safety topics and review lessons learned from past incidents to help prevent future ones.
  • Everyone: Take this week to look at your daily environment, at work and at home. Identify and address hazards, join the events, and keep the safety conversations going.

HSE Awareness Week is just the beginning. Stay engaged with HSE initiatives all year round here.
