excellence in safety and health
performance as an essential element of every activity or process and as a shared business value that must not be compromised. A safe and healthy work environment also means a secure workplace free from violence. Acts of violence, threats, threatening and malicious behavior, intimidation or any
other form of workplace violence will not be tolerated.
This means: - Creating an atmosphere where safety, health, environmental excellence and coaching among colleagues on safe work practices are encouraged and valued.
- Complying with all applicable laws, regulations and other requirements designed to protect safety and health.
- Encouraging the active participation of all colleagues in safety and health efforts and initiatives.
- Ensuring that each colleague is aware of the potential hazards in their work environment and is qualified to perform his/her duties.
- Bringing any unsafe acts or conditions - including threats or intimidation -to the attention of a manager, a local Safety and Health Representative, your local Human Resource representative or Global Safety and Environmental Affairs. You may also contact the Integrity Action Line.

Safety, Health and Security
Q. I have been asked by a
colleague to perform a task that I believe may be unsafe. What should I do?
A. The first thing you should
do is discuss your specific safety
concerns about the task with
your manager. You should ask
whether the specific hazards of
the task have been identified
and evaluated, and what controls
are in place for your protection.
If, after discussing your concerns
with your manager, you are
still not comfortable with
performing the proposed task
you should contact a higher level
of management, the Global
Human Resources department,
or your local safety professional
for further advice. You may
also contact the Integrity
Action Line.
