Quality and Safety
HSE
At ACC we are committed to ensuring the health and safety of our workforce and the people who live and work close to our projects. To enable us to do this, we operate a robust Health, Safety and Environmental management system which is evaluated for continual improvement in accordance with ISO 45001:2018 and ISO 14001:2015.
We foster a Health and Safety culture across our sites and believe that it is the responsibility of everyone from Senior Management to our site Workers to try to eliminate accidents from our workplaces. Our HSE practices include:
- Ongoing training for all employees and subcontractors to make sure they can carry out their work safely;
- All staff are proactive in continually monitoring and reporting any new hazards so that accidents can be avoided;
- Senior Management frequently visit project sites to speak to workers about HSE and Welfare requirements, ensuring that resources are available to implement the Health and Safety policy fully;
- We implement a risk-based approach in the planning and operation of our projects, seeking ways to eliminate accidents, injury and illnesses, reduce the use of energy and minimize material wastage to prevent pollution.
As well as complying with all legal requirements we keep up to date with best practices in HSE management and have been members of the British Safety Council for 12 years. We are also a selected and approved entity of Abu Dhabi Municipality since May 2012. We have been awarded an International Safety Award in recognition of our commitment to Health and Safety Management in Merit category for four consecutive years added to numerous recognition and appreciation certificates from our Clients and Consultants.
