Monitoring our safety performance We set key performance indicators to effectively monitor our progress in keeping our people and communities safe. These include lagging and leading indicators. Our key lagging indicators are the Total Recordable Injury Rate (TRIR) and Lost Time Injury Frequency (LTIF). Our leading indicators act as an early warning system, allowing us to intervene at the right time by applying our HSE leading indicator protocols. We focus our monitoring efforts on the following areas, which are aligned to industry benchmarks: asset integrity and process safety; operational safety; and road safety. Safety performance for employees and contractors 2021 2022 2023 Number of Fatalities 1 2 7 0 Total Recordable Injury Rate (Total Recordable Injury per million man hours) 1 0.22 0.20 0.12 Lost Time Injury Frequency (Total Recordable Injury per million man hours) 1 0.06 0.09 0.04 This year we recorded zero fatalities across our operations, while our TRIR and LTIF showed significant improvement. We implement regular, risk-based assurance processes to verify the effectiveness of our barriers and controls. We use the insights derived from our leading indicators to define priorities and intervention areas. We deploy a comprehensive training regime to ensure we have the right competencies in critical HSE roles. 1 Data has undergone an external limited assurance in accordance to the ISAE 3000. Training and engaging with our workforce The competence and capability of our workforce is critical to our ability to keep our people safe. We have several HSE training platforms in place for our employees and contractors. For HSE- critical employee positions, we conduct dedicated training. This includes the behavior-based safety training program to improve safety awareness, foster the desired HSE mindset and empower employees to intervene when observing an unsafe act or at-risk situation. Between 2020 and 2023, ADNOC successfully trained 56,807 employees and contractors on behavior-based safety. In 2023, we also trained 12,119 employees on human performance, which focuses on how our abilities, characteristics and limitations can impact our overall day-to-day wellbeing and productivity. The ADNOC Technical Academy curriculum includes mandated HSE onboarding courses for contractors. Visible safety leadership and commitment from our senior managers is at the heart of creating the right safety culture across our company. We expect our leaders to walk the talk. Through our HSE leadership visits and site walk-through programs, we engage with our frontline employees and contractors to reinforce a 100% HSE mindset and assess the effectiveness of our control. 86
