It is the policy of Aker Drilling to recognise (HSE) as among the highest corporate goals and objectives and to integrate this policy, programmes and practices fully into each business as an essential element of management in all its functions.
Operating on the Norwegian Continental Shelf requires the highest standards forHSE frameworks and systems, and as a result the Company is already in compliance with international HSE standards.
HSE is a line management responsibility and reflected in all managerial functions of the Company. HSE management is a corporate priority and while the responsibility for implementing this policy rests with line managers, all others associated with the Aker Drilling Group and its operations are expected to be responsible for their actions, including those which may impact others.
HSE concerns and issues are openly discussed. It is Aker Drilling’s intension to foster openness and dialogue with the employees and the public, anticipate and respond to their concerns about hazards and impacts of operations, products, wastes or services including those of cross-border or global significance.
HSE issues and performance are presented to the society and our stakeholders in general. Aker Drilling will provide appropriate HSE information to the Board of Directors, shareholders, employees, the authorities and the public.
Aker personnel will at all levels and in all processes:
- Strive continuously for zero accidents to personnel, material and nonmaterial assets with a vision that all accidents can be prevented.
- Focus on employee health and on continuously improving the work environment.
- Conduct our operations through efficient use of materials and energy, with minimum waste and damage to the environment.
- Design services to have no undue environmental impact, to be safe and to be efficient in consuming energy and natural resources.
