The
new HS&E standards clarify management's intent in key areas for
all sites and business units. The standards are concise, practical
and are performance based rather than prescriptive. The company believes
that inflexible prescription of methods is not the best mechanism
for implementing HS&E standards across a global, multi-site company.
Instead, sites are required to develop their own processes and procedures
for achieving compliance and delivering continuous improvement in
HS&E performance.
This document summarises the HS&E standards
introduced in 1999. These are available on the company's intranet,
which has a unique site for the HS&E function. This site highlights
general HS&E issues, topical matters of interest to operational
sites, etc, and can be used for rapid dissemination of company HS&E
information.
