Sustainability
Safety
As a group of companies with a global footprint, we have an obligation to support and contribute to a positive industry change in safety, particularly through our expertise in underground hard rock mining operations.
In FY23 we established a Safety Transformation Taskforce which effectively challenged our thinking and approach to safety risk. The Safety Transformation Taskforce has driven substantial safety initiatives across the organisation and resulted in the creation of bespoke Divisional Safety Transformation Plans.
With these divisional plans now in place, the Safety Transformation Taskforce has concluded its formal role. Going forward, the primary focus will be on implementing divisional implementation, with accountability ensured through monthly, quarterly, and biannual safety reporting routines and targeted ‘deep dive’ reviews. Improvement initiatives are being tracked to ensure completion and where applicable integrated into our safety management system.
Safety approach
The health and safety of our employees is an ever-present industry challenge. Working together, we can achieve our goals. Smarter together, safer together means:
We look out for our each other and show we care by speaking up when something doesn’t look or feel right.
Together we can identify better ways to make it easy to enable safe work.
Ultimately, we can only ever achieve our objective of no adverse life-changing events by working and learning about work together.
We show leadership and are curious when it comes to safety, health and well-being.
We integrate safety into everyday business and operational practices. Planning and executing quality work to achieve positive health and safety outcomes remains a focus of all our people regardless of where they operate or what task is at hand. Our obligation starts with Perenti’s commitment to preventing adverse life changing events and to keeping our people physically and psychologically safe.
Emergency management
Perenti is committed to ensuring we maintain a state of security, emergency and crisis preparedness to enable us to prevent, respond and recover from security and other events which may impact our people, the environment, assets, surrounding communities, business operations or reputation. We have adopted a holistic approach to the management of security, emergency and crisis-related risks, which is supported by a suite of standards and associated plans and guidelines.
Health, safety & well-being policy
We are committed to creating a culture of safety and respect, resulting in a work environment that prioritises safety above production and is integral to delivering our objective of no negative physical and psychological life-changing events.
The health and safety of our people remains our absolute priority and we are committed to doing everything we can to ensure our people are safe in the workplace.
