Introduction
Health, Safety
and Environmental (HSE) Management is an integral and essential part of the way
we do our business and is considered an equal part
of the wider
system for the management of our business.
Through
effective management, PROCES aims to be the preferred contractor and the favored employer. The
requirements set out in this document constitute the expectations for
divisional compliance with PROCES policy.
The purpose of
this document is to describe:
• The structure
for the management of Health, Safety and Environmental
(HSE) within the
PROCES divisions.
• The
expectations for each element of the HSE Management System.
It is the
responsibility of each division to determine how these expectations
and requirements are to be
achieved.
Health, Safety and Environmental Policy
Our goal is to protect our people, the public,
our property and the
environment in which they work and live. It is a
commitment that is in the
best interests of our customers, our employees .
It is possible to run all operations without
injuries or damage to equipment
or the environment:
• We will comply with all applicable laws and
relevant industry standards
of practice.
• We will continuously evaluate the Health,
Safety and Environmental
(HSE) aspects of our equipment and services.
• We believe that effective HSE management is
good business and we are
committed to the continuous improvement of HSE
management practices.
• From top management through to entry level,
everyone is responsible and
accountable for HSE.
We are committed to the integration of HSE
objectives into our management
systems at all levels. This will enhance our
business success by reducing
risk and adding value to our services.

General Manager
Our Mission
To strive for excellence in providing
services to the civil work construction industry .
To distinguish ourselves through
listening, learning and understanding
industry challenges and to capitalize
on strategic and opportunistic possibilities.
To provide services that are
attractive and fair to our customers and earn
their loyalty .
To create a work place that protects
worker health and safety with due
respect for the environment, and
promote an atmosphere to grow employee
learning and opportunity in a way
that is fulfilling, recognized and fairly
rewarded.
Our Vision
PROCES expects its personnel to
achieve year-over-year improvement in safety performance while Driving to Zero injuries.
PROCES is aiming for a destination
called “zero” – zero safety incidents, zero injuries and zero days off work due
to injury; in other words, a perfect HSE record. Driving to Zero means accepting that every incident
is preventable.
Our Driving to Zero vision is a “decision to change” – change behavior and
the way things are done to ensure
safety is always at the forefront for every
employee , we expect our workers to make
safety on-the-job and off-the-job an everyday priority by emphasizing five
safety principles:
• Participation
• Accountability
• Consistency
• Communication
• Training
At PROCES, we expect people to come
to the job site and for just one shift,
not have any injures. Then we achieve it on the next shift,
and the next Day
after day. We know it can be done
because many of our work sites achieve
it every day, year after year.
The Driving to Zero vision does not mean that another injury will never
occur. Rather, it means a commitment
to working as many hours as possible
without an injury. And it requires an
attitude – an attitude that says any injury
or incident, even a small one,
shouldn’t be taken lightly. Any incident is
unacceptable. That’s the attitude
that is key to Driving to Zero.
It’s an attitude that we expect from
each employee at PROCES .
HSE Management System
The PROCES HSE Management System
defines the elements by which we
will conduct our operations in order
to protect our people, the public, our property and the environment in which
they work and live.
The HSE Management System model is
comprised of seven interrelated
elements with underlying
expectations:
1. Commitment and Leadership
2. Policies and Objectives
3. Organization, Resources and
Documentation
4. Risk Evaluation and Management
5. Planning
6. Implementation, Recording and
Monitoring
7. Audit and Review
Each division must communicate these
expectations to all employees,
customers and third parties
associated with our business. Each division
must provide positive evidence of
conformance to this Management System
and continuous improvement.
