Health, Safety and
Environmental Policy
Dully Group recognizes the importance of Health, Safety and
Environmental concerns to the oil and gas industries as well as the adverse
consequences of its failure to observe check and control or completely eliminate the
acts and conditions that might result in accidents or incidents.
It is the policy of DULLY to comply with the national health, safety and environmental
specifications such as ISO 14001, the Factory Decree of 1987 and safety Act of 1997
to provide and maintain a healthy and safe working environment, thereby minimizing the
number of instances of occupational accidents and illnesses and ultimately to achieve azero LTI on our projects.
All employees will be provided with such equipment, information, training and supervision
as necessary to implement this policy and achieve the stated objective. DULLY
recognizes and accepts its duty to protect the health and safety of all visitors to the
company, including contractors and temporary workers, as well as any members of the
public who might be affected by our operations.
As I have said earlier, the management of DULLY will provide every employee with the
training necessary to carry out his or her tasks safely. However, if an employee is
unsure on how to perform a certain task or feels it would be dangerous to perform a
specific job then it is the employee’s duty to report this to his supervisor or the HSE
co-ordinator. An effective HSE programme requires continuous communication between
the management and the workers at all levels. Therefore it is every worker’s
responsibility to report immediately any situation, which could jeopardize the well being
of himself or any other person, property and investment. HSE compliant award shall be
given to adherents while safety abuse shall not go unpunished.
DULLY will always strive to maintain good relationship with the host communities
through effective communication and assistance.
All injuries however small, sustained by a person at work must be reported to the HSE
co-ordinator or a delegated representative. Accident records are crucial to the
effective monitoring and revision of the policy and must therefore be accurate and
comprehensive.
DULLY HSE policy will be continually monitored, audited and updated to reflect the
dynamic nature of our operations.
Furthermore, it is the policy of our company to comply with applicable HSE laws,
regulations, and requirements.
