  1. Health and Safety

Our Health and Safety policies are designed to prevent workplace injuries, illnesses, and accidents. These include:

Risk Assessment and Hazard Control: All operations undergo thorough risk assessments to identify potential hazards. Appropriate control measures are implemented, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), machinery safeguards, and emergency response protocols.

Emergency Response and Preparedness: We have well-defined emergency response procedures, including well control, fire safety, evacuation plans, and first aid training for all personnel. Drills and simulations are conducted regularly to prepare employees for emergency situations.

Employee Training: Regular safety training programs are conducted for all employees, contractors, and stakeholders. Topics covered include hazard identification, safe work practices, first aid, fire safety, and emergency response.

Health Monitoring: Regular health checks are conducted for employees involved in potentially hazardous work, such as those exposed to high temperatures, noise, chemicals, and heavy machinery. We provide necessary medical care and ensure that all employees have access to mental health support.

Incident Reporting and Investigation: All incidents, accidents, and near misses are thoroughly investigated to determine root causes and prevent recurrence. Reports are reviewed at all levels of the company, and corrective actions are implemented immediately.

  1. Environmental Protection

ONEXTRACTION SERVICES LTD is committed to minimizing the environmental impact of our operations. Our environmental policies include:

Environmental Risk Assessment: We conduct thorough environmental impact assessments (EIA) prior to the initiation of any project. These assessments help us identify potential environmental risks such as pollution, habitat disruption, and resource depletion.

Pollution Prevention: We are dedicated to minimizing the release of pollutants into the air, water, and soil. This is achieved by using state-of-the-art technology, reducing waste generation, recycling, and proper disposal of hazardous materials.

Waste Management: We implement effective waste management practices, including waste minimization, segregation, and recycling. We ensure that hazardous materials are properly stored, transported, and disposed of in accordance with environmental regulations.

Energy Efficiency: We focus on optimizing energy use and reducing carbon emissions by adopting energy-efficient technologies and practices in our operations.

Biodiversity and Ecosystem Preservation: We take proactive steps to preserve biodiversity and minimize the impact of our activities on ecosystems, particularly in sensitive areas. We work with local communities and environmental organizations to ensure that our operations are sustainable.

  1. Safety Culture and Continuous Improvement

We are committed to embedding safety into our organizational culture and constantly improving our safety performance. Key components include:

Safety Leadership: Leaders at all levels are accountable for fostering a strong safety culture. Management provides active leadership by setting clear safety expectations, communicating policies, and providing the necessary resources to ensure a safe work environment.

Behavioral Safety:  We promote a behavior-based safety approach that encourages employees to actively identify risks and take corrective actions. This approach involves empowering all employees to stop unsafe work and report safety issues immediately.

Audits and Inspections: Regular safety audits, inspections, and reviews are carried out to ensure that our safety management system remains effective. We focus on identifying areas for improvement and implementing corrective actions.

Continuous Training: We continuously update training programs to reflect new safety regulations, technology, and best practices. This includes refresher courses, safety drills, and leadership training in safety management.

  1. HSE Performance Monitoring

We closely monitor HSE performance through:

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): We track safety metrics such as incident frequency rates, near misses, training completion, and compliance with safety procedures. These KPIs help us evaluate safety performance and identify trends or areas needing attention.

– HSE Audits: Our internal HSE audits are performed regularly to ensure compliance with our policies and regulatory standards. These audits are supplemented by third-party audits when necessary to provide an independent review of our practices.

– Employee Engagement: We engage employees at all levels to promote a culture of safety. Regular safety meetings, feedback sessions, and HSE performance reviews help ensure that employees are involved and invested in HSE efforts.

HSE Roles and Responsibilities

HSE is a shared responsibility at ONEXTRACTION SERVICES LTD, and roles are clearly defined:

– Management: Senior leadership is responsible for setting HSE policies, providing resources for safety initiatives, and ensuring compliance with applicable regulations. They also promote a safety culture across the organization.

– HSE Managers: Responsible for overseeing the implementation of HSE policies and ensuring that all teams comply with safety protocols. HSE managers conduct audits, investigations, and training to maintain safety standards.

– Supervisors: Supervisors are tasked with enforcing safety measures on-site, monitoring employee safety behavior, and addressing hazards immediately. They play a key role in incident reporting and accident prevention.

– Employees: All employees are responsible for following safety procedures, using personal protective equipment (PPE), reporting hazards, and participating in safety training programs. They are actively involved in hazard identification and risk mitigation efforts.

HSE Reporting and Review

We have a clear system for reporting safety and environmental incidents:

– Incident Reporting: Any safety or environmental incident is reported immediately through our digital reporting system. All incidents are investigated, documented, and reviewed to determine their root cause.

– HSE Reviews: Regular reviews of HSE performance are conducted at all levels, with reports shared in meetings for transparency and corrective action. Lessons learned from incidents and near-misses are communicated across the organization to prevent future occurrences.
