Engie Solutions, an international leader in sustainable energy solutions, has achieved an outstanding 20 million person-hours without a lost time incident (LTI) over a period of 900 days across its GCC operations.
A lost time incident refers to an incident that results in an injury that causes an employee to miss work.
This accomplishment is a valuable testament to the company’s values and positions Engie Solutions as an industry trailblazer in employee health, safety and wellbeing, said a statement from Engie Solutions.
The 20 million person-hours without a LTI marks a new milestone by Engie Solutions, surpassing the previous mark of 10 million lost time incident-free work hours achieved last year.
"Safety of our employees is always a top priority for Engie Solutions," said Miles Webb, the Chief Operations Officer at Engie Solutions.
"Achieving 20 million person-hours without a lost time incident is an important milestone for us underpinned by various factors such as organizational culture, having effective and efficient processes in place, leadership commitment, employee engagement, not to mention a predisposition towards risk anticipation and mitigation," he stated.
According to him, Engie embraces the highest standards of health, safety and security for all employees, with the protection of individuals deeply embedded within the company’s DNA.
Through its ‘No Life at Risk’ framework, the company seeks to reduce the frequency and severity of accidents for its own employees and any subcontractor partners, with a target of zero fatal accidents, stated Webb.
"We have strict policies, rigorous health and safety procedures, regular drills and training in place to ensure the wellbeing of our colleagues at all times," he added.
