• Personal Safety Management: Protect human assets by providing safe practices to improve behaviour and culture
• Environmental Management: Provide processes to protect the environment through operating integrity, and ensure compliance with environmental, regulatory and/or internal requirements
• Community Relations: Define and establish processes and protocols to communicate and implement emergency response plans, and enhance interactions in the community
• HSSE Reporting and Compliance: Assure visibility and achievement of HSSE goals and compliance requirements, by monitoring, learning and improving continuously through processes, initiatives and KPIs
• Plant Protocols and Security: Provide processes and strategies to protect assets and infrastructure from threats, and control access to vulnerable processes and equipment
