The ABB Way HSE&S Management System provides a structured framework to identify risks, establish controls, monitor performance, and continuously improve our Health, Safety, Environment, and Security (HSE&S) performance. It is built on the principle that all incidents are preventable and that everyone has a role in creating a safe workplace.
The Seven Elements of the ABB Way
?? Leadership & Commitment Clearly defined roles, responsibilities, authorities, and resources ensure accountability at every level.
?? People & Participation Every employee and contractor is empowered to participate, intervene, and contribute to a stronger safety culture.
?? Planning & Risk Management Hazards, risks, opportunities, and legal requirements are identified and assessed before work begins.
?? Competence, Communication & Awareness People must be trained, competent, and informed to perform work safely and effectively.
?? Operational Control Safe systems of work, Permit-to-Work, Life Saving Rules, Management of Change, and Emergency Preparedness are implemented to control risk.
?? Monitoring & Measurement Inspections, audits, observations, and performance indicators help verify that controls are effective.
?? Learning & Continuous Improvement Incidents, near misses, audits, and lessons learned are reviewed to drive ongoing improvement.
Key ABB Message
Safety excellence is not achieved through compliance alone. It is achieved when every person actively identifies risks, follows controls, learns from experience, and continuously improves.
Remember
Plan the Work ? Assess the Risks ? Control the Hazards ? Verify Performance ? Learn and Improve
