Corporate Responsibility
Environmental Commitment
In all its operations, RAK Gas is committed to ensuring appropriate measures are in place to protect all employees from the dangers of accidents and occupational diseases inherent in the oil and gas industry. The management oversees a program of continuous improvement supported by a well-documented policy to manage its activities in order to minimize, so far as reasonably practicable, the risk to the environment and to the health and safety of people who may be affected by the Company’s activities.
The Company’s programs and policies are also designed to equip and empower employees with sufficient and appropriate training and resources required to manage an emergency situation if it arises, so far as reasonably practicable.
Health
RAK Gas seeks to conduct activities in such manner as to avoid harm to the health of their employees; and to promote, as appropriate, the health of employees, contractors and all others who may be affected directly or indirectly by its activities.
Safety
RAK Gas operates on the principle that all injuries are preventable, and actively promotes amongst all employees the high standards of safety consciousness and discipline that this principle demands. We encourage contractors to adopt this principle too and work continuously to refine our protocols, policies and procedures to adopt contemporary thinking and mitigate exposure to risk.
Environment
RAK Gas believes in sustainable development and therefore places paramount importance on the conservation of the environment by progressively reducing emissions, effluents and discharges of waste materials that are known to have a negative impact on the environment with the ultimate aim of eliminating them.
RAK Gas places Health, Safety and regard for the Environment as the paradigm of successful operations. Excelling in HSE matters is seen as fundamental to improving our business results and delivering our strategy. It therefore takes priority over and is managed in the same manner as productivity and cost control. Activities are only allowed to be undertaken when a safe and responsible manner has been established for execution.
RAK Gas pursues and implements the foregoing principles through active and visible management commitment for safe and clean practices and the individual contributions of their staff, supported by education and training.
Only in such a way can the commitment of the total workforce at all levels, essential for success, be expected. Safety is a line management responsibility as well as an individual responsibility.
