2015 Sustainable Development & Corporate Responsibility Report

HEALTH & SAFETY TRAINING

A common procedure pertaining to basic health and safety training is implemented, so that there is a uniform safety culture across all of the Group’s industrial facilities.

The training of the Group’s personnel is multifaceted and includes issues such as:

  • Fire safety – use of fire extinguishing equipment - rescue techniques from heights and confined spaces
  • First aid – burns treatment
  • Use of personal protective equipment (respirators, masks, etc)
  • Presentations concerning international incidents and accidents (causes/conclusions)
  • Periodic reviews (refreshing important safety and emergency procedures)
  • Participation in drills
  • Distribution of the monthly CCPS Process Safety bulletin (Beacon) to all employees: The Group is the official translator of the CCPS bulletin in the Greek language.

2015 saw even more training in the field of safety; we believe that continuously developing the skills and expertise of the Group's employees is a key prerequisite for sustainable growth and competitiveness.

Seminars on improving safety behavior were continued and encompassed new  levels of administrative staff and engineers at the Aspropyrgos, Elefsina and Thessaloniki refineries as well as at Diaxon.

Employees’ training needs are evaluated by their immediate supervisor, in the context of their annual performance evaluation after which the implementation of actions to meet the needs, that have been identified, is planned.

Asides from employees, training is also provided to contractors, clients, truck drivers, petrol station owners and students. Visitors to the facilities are informed on the facilities’ safety instructions through printed material.

Specifically for the training of contractors, it is based on presentations made by Safety Engineers as well as written exams; only successful applicants are granted admission cards to work on site.
