Making health and safety our top priority
We firmly believe in the safety and well-being of our employees, clients, and partners. For us, there is no room for compromise, and we believe that integrating safety into every decision is not just a priority but a core value : “No life at risk, no mind at risk, no asset at risk,”.
Our commitment to a “speak up” culture empowers every team member to voice concerns and share ideas, ensuring that safety is always at the forefront.
As part of the One Safety Culture, we put into practice five essential principles to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone:
Health and Safety are not just about protecting our employees and subcontractors—they also extend to our public and private clients, as well as international funding partners. To foster a strong safety culture, we have implemented five key managerial rituals that promote exemplary safety behavior:
These managerial rituals aim to foster collective and continuous awareness of safety’s critical importance.
As engineers, we must ensure from the very beginning of a project that both design and execution meet the highest safety standards.
We prioritize health and safety not just in words, but through concrete actions and measures. Every employee, regardless of their position, has the authority to stop work if necessary (Stop Work Authority).
Additionally, we have implemented the EOSC program as part of our onboarding training for all leaders. This program, created by our parent company ENGIE, is being deployed in accordance with the group roadmap, ensuring our leaders are equipped with the knowledge and skills to uphold our safety standards.
Our Health & Safety policy is fully aligned with ENGIE’s vision: ensuring the highest safety standards for our employees, clients, and partners, with a strong focus on preventing serious and fatal accidents.
At Tractebel, safety is more than a priority—it’s a shared responsibility and a core value. We are fostering a health and safety culture driven by top management’s commitment and the collective efforts of our people at every level. By promoting a 'speak up' culture and raising awareness, we engage our employes, our clients and stakeholders in our unified safety culture.
