Ethics and Responsible BusinessHealth and Safety
At ENGIE, health and safety is a top priority and is embedded into every aspect of our operations. Protecting the lives of all those who work for us is at the heart of what we do as a socially responsible company.
Safety first
We are fully committed to protecting the safety and occupational health of our employees, contractors, site visitors, and neighbours in the wider community. To achieve this, we actively promote a positive safety culture across our sites, which encompasses both permanent staff and personnel from contractor companies.
Our prevention actions are structured across 3 areas:
No life at risk. Mitigation of risks related to the direct performance of activities, prevention of accidents at work
No mind at risk. Improvement of well-being at work, vigilance, control of mental health risks
No asset at risk. Mitigation of the risks related to ENGIE’s industrial activities
Health and Safety at ENGIE
How we do it
Ensuring safety on our AD Plants
At our anaerobic digestion sites, we’re working every day with methane-rich biogas to create sustainable energy.
It’s potentially dangerous work, so we’re hyper vigilant to the potential risks involved. No task is carried out without a full risk assessment and method statement.
We also carry out regular assessments of our sites to make sure we comply with Health & Safety Executive guidance and regulations, including:
- the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmosphere Regulations 2002 (DSEAR)
- Hazardous area classification
- Regulations on confined spaces
Ongoing training
We are dedicated to training each of our employees in the highest health and safety standards and compliance on site, including a tailored ‘One Safety Culture Programme’, revolving around five safety values:
- Health, Safety, and quality of life in the workplace.
- Social protection.
- Gender equality, diversity and inclusion.
- Sustainable employment and skills development.
- Respect for fundamental rights and an active fight against fraud and corruption.
