Safety

A strong safety culture is central to how we operate. Through open communication, supportive leadership and shared responsibility, we foster an environment where people feel respected, supported and empowered to contribute to a safer workplace.

Our approach is supported by:

• Communication – providing timely and relevant safety information through operational forums such as pre-starts and toolbox talks.
• Involvement – encouraging employee and contractor participation in safety discussions and decisions, including support for health and safety representatives.
• Transparency – making relevant safety information accessible to support informed decision-making.
• Voice – creating forums for people to raise concerns, ask questions and contribute to safer outcomes.

We continue to strengthen our safety culture through improved reporting, analysis and performance insights that support continuous improvement.

We provide health and safety training and onboarding appropriate to role, work activities and level of risk. Employees, contractors and subcontractors are required to complete relevant inductions and training before commencing work, while visitors are managed in line with site access requirements and supervision arrangements.

Training requirements are reviewed regularly to help ensure our people have the knowledge, skills and support needed to work safely, understand risk and manage exposure effectively.

Managing health and safety risk is fundamental to keeping our people safe. We take a structured, risk-based approach to health and safety across our business, guided by our belief that all risks, both physical and psychological, can and must be effectively managed.

Central to this approach is our Critical Risk Management Program, which is focused on fatality prevention and the identification, control and verification of risks with the potential to cause serious harm. We set the standards, framework and governance that guide how health and safety risks are managed across our operations, ensuring the safety of our people remains central to the decisions we make.

Contractors are an important part of our operations and we work with them in a way that supports safe, competent and well-managed delivery of work.

Our approach to contractor management includes:

• prequalification processes aligned to a risk-based contractor categorisation
• verification of relevant skills, licences, resources and equipment
• submission of safety documentation appropriate to the scope of work
• completion of required inductions and compliance requirements
• appropriate checks, reviews and authorisations before work begins
• ongoing assurance, monitoring and performance review
• post-engagement evaluation and demobilisation processes where required.

This approach supports safe work through clear expectations, effective oversight and appropriate systems and processes.
