Safety

The clear corporate objective is that all employees have a safe and healthy working environment. The work day begins for all operating and maintenance departments with a ten minute safety meeting.

To prevent accidents and create the best possible working conditions, all employees take active ownership and responsibility. For this reason, an internal control system has been established to ensure that laws and regulations and internal company stipulations are complied with. This also enables a tool for continuous improvement in the area of health and safety. The departments of HSE (health, safety and environment), Corporate Health and Quality/Society assist in the organisation and facilitation of HSE activities.

Industry safety

The industry safety force uses preventative measures against accidents. Effective training ensures that all such preventative measures can be implemented to ensure employee and company safety. Included in the measures are the presence of a security guard and security features at the port facility in connection with ISPS regulations.
