protecting people
our commitment to health and safety
Safety is embedded in everything we do at Chevron Australia. Our safety culture is based on two unwavering principles: do it safely or not at all; and there is always time to do it right.
We do not compromise on safety, because getting results the right way makes us who we are.
We are committed to protecting our people and developing a workplace that is incident and injury free. To achieve this, we work together as one team to send our employees and contractors home safe from work every day.
At Chevron, we believe that incidents are preventable, and we have policies, processes, tools and behavioural expectations in place to assist us in achieving that goal. We call the systematic management of process safety, reliability and integrity, environment, efficiency, security and stakeholders to achieve world-class performance Operational Excellence (OE) – and it drives everything we do.
OE is based on the following focus areas:

partnering with contractors
The health and safety of our workforce and contractors is paramount, which is why health, environment and safety (HES) are at the forefront of all our project development plans. Our HES specialists work closely with project teams and key contractors to promote a healthy workforce and an incident free workplace.
