Health, Safety & Environment
Centurion is committed to developing and maintaining a premier health and safety culture for all employees, contractors and subcontractors associated with the company and its operations. The provision of superior health and safety is a core company value of equal importance to environmental protection, operational efficiency, community welfare and profitability. In case of conflict, safety will always come first.
The Company shall ensure that all personnel, including contractors and subcontractors personnel working on or visiting Centurion facilities, are informed of and are required to comply with all Company Health and Safety policies and procedures. Without exception, everyone is accountable for his/her actions.
Centurion affirms its devotion to the following:
- An injury free workplace will be achieved.
- Management will be actively involved and commit sufficient financial and other resources necessary for superior health and safety performance.
Safety happens by choice, not by chance.
Supervisors will maintain the health and safety of all personnel as they direct work and other related activities. In the event of a real or apparent safety related conflict with operations, health and safety will always take priority.
Safety shall never be sacrificed for expediency.
All employees have a responsibility to eliminate at risk behaviour in themselves and others. This includes the obligation to stop the work during any perceived unsafe operation. Employee teamwork, cooperation, participation and support by all are vital if the aims and objectives of this policy are to be achieved.
Safety is a condition of employment.
Centurion will strive to ensure that:
- Health and safety is promoted within, and external to, the organisation.
- Safe systems of work are identified and adopted.
- Compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements is maintained.
- Appropriate levels of risk assessment will be applied to all activities.
- Employees are made aware of potential hazards and the necessary precautions to be taken through the communication of information, instruction, training and supervision.
- Employees participate fully in all health and safety arrangements and all suggestions for improving standards of performance are encouraged.
- The immediate and root cause of incidents (actual and potential) are identified and communicated to prevent reoccurrence.
This policy will be continuously reviewed and revised as necessary to ensure that it remains effective.
Centurion has Emergency Response Plans in place for its projects but also observes and supports the Petroleum Industry Guiding Principles for Worker Safety as developed by the Canadian Petroleum Safety Council.
