Central to our approach is a strong emphasis on Health and Safety, which provides the framework to embed safety culture for our employees and supply chain partners to think safe, work safe and be safe throughout the organisation.
Safety is a key, non-negotiable priority and we at UEM Edgenta, are committed to preventing work-related accidents, injuries and illnesses to our employees, and partners across the supply chain so that all of them can go home safely.
We have always emphasised strongly on Health and Safety, which provides the framework to embed safety culture for our employees and supply chain partners to think safe, work safe and be safe throughout the organisation.
Our aim is to achieve “Goal Zero”, and a Health, Safety, Security & Environment (“HSSE”) Master Plan was put in place to optimise safety across our operations. This included the development of the HSSE Management System (“HSSE MS”) Manual, Contractor Safety Management Framework and rolled out a HSSE Management Information System with mobile application.
Our focused approach on Health and Safety, as well as the implementation of the HSSE Master Plan, has helped improve Safety performance by 70%, a huge reduction in fatal incidents from 2017 to 2018. Goal Zero is an endless journey and we will continue to exercise tighter controls, train our people, enhance our processes, as well as innovate our approaches to safety.
