Core Occupational Health Programs Include:
Employee Health Systems and Workplace Wellbeing
We have established comprehensive occupational health policies and procedures to support all employees onshore and offshore through proactive health monitoring, ergonomic practices, fitness-to-work evaluations, and noise exposure monitoring.
Mental Health Support
We encourage a positive approach to mental health through awareness sessions, access to support services, and resources that promote emotional resilience and well-being in the workplace.
Safety
Safety is not just a priority; it is a core value embedded in every operation. Our Control of Work (CoW) process is the cornerstone of safe execution, digitally enabled through our Electronic Permit to Work (ePTW) system.
This platform streamlines permit workflows, integrates digital signatures, and ensures real-time visibility and compliance across our fleet.
The ePTW system is a structured safety framework that incorporates:
Start Work Checks (SWC)
Task-level verifications aligned with the IOGP Life-Saving Rules, ensuring critical safeguards are in place before work begins.
Energy Isolation Protocols
Digitally tracked lock-out/tag-out procedures that verify zero energy before work starts, with dual verification by Performing and Area Authorities.
Environment
We are dedicated to a sustainable future and recognize that protecting the environment and managing energy are critical components of sustainability and responsible global citizenship.
