Heath, Safety, Environment and Quality
At TotalEnergies, safety is more than just a priority. It's a core value and the basis of our strategy. Our ambition is to be recognized as the benchmark for safety in our industry. To achieve this ambition, we have taken steps to ensure that safety is an integral part of our processes and guides our everyday actions. Safety is a core value that we want everyone to share, from managers and employees to partner companies and local stakeholders.
Because the energy industry is inherently exposed to numerous risks, we are championing safety as our highest value. Not only do we consider safety to be a vital issue; we also recognize that safety guarantees the long-term growth of our operations.
It would be impossible to continue operating in our host regions without the trust and support of states, civil society and local populations. To earn their trust, we need to above all demonstrate our ability to explore for, process and distribute energy safely.
OUR AMBITION: TO BE RECOGNIZED AS THE BENCHMARK FOR SAFETY IN OUR INDUSTRY
Safety is one of our Group's core values, our ambition is applied at all levels. From occupational safety to transportation safety, it concerns our own employees, as well as those of our partners.
The efforts we have been making for many years now and our cumulative experience have produced positive results. For over 10 years, the number of injuries recorded per million hours worked (TRIR) and the number of injuries leading to lost time (LTIR) has continued to decline and we are now ranked on par with the best performing oil and gas majors.
These results are encouraging, but we want to go even further and be recognized as the benchmark for safety in our industry. This is the reason why we've set an ambitious goal of zero fatal accidents.
“We owe it to our stakeholders to provide a safe work environment, but we owe it first to ourselves and our employees, as well as to those of our partner companies. Our ability to operate safely and reliably all over the world is the foundation of our operational excellence and business performance.”
Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
