We have a robust and comprehensive HSE Management System (HSEMS) in place, which defines the fundamental principles by which we manage our operations. A robust foundation for health and safety The custodian of ADNOCs HSEMS documentation is the Group HSE function, which periodically reviews and updates documentation to assess its effectiveness and identify opportunities for improvement. To keep our contractors safe and ensure appropriate working conditions, we have a robust contractor HSE Management Standard that helps ensure business opportunities are only granted to partners who are committed to our 100% HSE value. The contractor HSE Management Standard: Defines the minimum HSE prequalification and selection criteria, and the objectives to be met at each stage of a contract Describes a planned approach to managing contractor HSE to ensure continuous improvement in HSE performance for all contractor activities and facilities Describes the roles and responsibilities of key personnel Provides an approach to monitoring the implementation of HSE requirements Our HSEMS provides an integrated framework for driving all HSE initiatives and builds on industry-recognized standards to ensure that: People, the environment and assets are protected Clear HSE goals, targets, expectations and roles and responsibilities are defined Improvements in measurement and feedback mechanisms are evident The HSEMS was developed following a comprehensive benchmarking exercise with internationally recognized safety management frameworks and is aligned with the requirements of ISO 45001:2018 (Occupational Health and Safety) and ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management System). It sets out the requirements and standards for implementing the commitments and expectations defined in the ADNOC Group HSE policy and for driving continuous improvement in HSE performance. 82
