we are. HSE
Our occupational health and safety management system programs constantly analyze and keep track of the main potential risks through employee engagement and by using new technologies in extensive and dedicated training sessions for our entire workforce on emergency scenarios.
We have dedicated and certified employee-training sessions on emergency preparedness.
We ensure that our workers have adequate instruction and specific training about work-related hazards related to their respective work areas to avoid exposure to a serious risk. We promptly take measures to control risk situations and require workers, in the event of serious or immediate danger, to leave their workplace or dangerous area.
