We believe that the health and safety of our people comes first in all our decisions and actions.
Our health and safety aspiration is ‘no-one gets hurt, no incidents’ and we seek to be recognised by our people and peers as an industry leader in the management of health and safety. This includes ensuring the integrity of our assets throughout their lifecycle so that they operate without jeopardising our people’s health and safety and our asset’s value.
We strive to ensure the security of Woodside people, information, assets and reputation throughout the company’s global operations.
In 2011 our strategic imperatives are:
- Strengthen ‘Our Safety Culture’ and implement other high impact human factors tools and techniques;
- Understand the consequences of major accident events and manage preventative and mitigative controls;
- Consistently implement health, safety and security standards, procedures and rules;
- Improve learning, the communication of lessons learnt and the recognition of warning signs from incidents in order to avoid repeat incidents;
- Design new and modified facilities to be inherently safer. Assure the integrity of existing assets; and
- Undertake strong engagement and relationship-building with government agencies and contractors to achieve excellent health, safety and security performance.
