HEALTH AND SAFETY @ WORK – ADOPTING BEST PRACTICES
Integrating safety into the workflow
Health and safety at the workplace assumes crucial significance. All the more so in offshore oil and gas operations, where people often work in hazardous environments and perform under risky situations.
A mishap or unpleasant incident can turn out to be catastrophic; it could endanger human life, have negative economic impact and create far-reaching ecological ripples. The Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 is a vivid case in point.
Health and safety is intricately linked to business performance and brand reputation. Hence it is imperative to integrate safety into the organisation’s workflow, follow best practices and adhere to globally accepted protocols.
Our Policy is to ensure that BATOK’s Occupational Health and Safety procedures continually develop to protect the People, Environment, Assets and Reputation while carrying out operations, placing safety at the forefront always irrespective of whatever the environment or geographic location is.
