2019 UEM Edgenta Annual Report

78 The Social pillar focuses on achieving outcomes which contribute to Better Lives for all our stakeholders. These include the communities which we engage with and the activities we undertake to ensure the health and safety of not only our employees, but the external stakeholders who are impacted by our services. SOCIAL BETTER LIVES – HEALTH AND SAFETY Health, Safety, Security and Environment (“HSSE”) is always front and central in everything we do. In our business of providing essential services to multiple industries, our staff are exposed to many Health and Safety risks. “Goal Zero” Culture through HSSE Leadership Our vision of “Goal Zero” is an aspiration which influences our mindset and drives our staff behaviour towards HSSE excellence, a key element in the Edgenta Way. We are close to completing all our milestones set in the 2018 - 2020 HSSE Master Plan, which was designed to optimise safety across our businesses. The Master Plan focuses on Leadership / Culture, HSSE Management Systems and People, and the results we have achieved to date across all three pillars have been positive. Leadership is now more visible and felt at the frontlines, with management systems supported by well-defined processes for our business to continue operational excellence. We achieve our goals by ensuring our people and service partners are well-trained to deliver their respective duties based on responding to risks, as well as compliance with global standards and best practices. All these efforts are underlined by our commitment towards continuous improvement and innovation, using technology to create a holistic HSSE Digital Eco System as the ’arrowhead’ in transforming HSSE into the digital era and achieve our Goal Zero targets.
