This World Day for Safety & Health at Work, we reaffirm a simple principle, driven by Goal Zero…

Every worker has the right to a safe & healthy workplace, with zero harm to people & zero tolerance for unsafe practices.

Our Deputy ED @KoneSonja highlights how this commitment guides operations in even the most complex environments, from fragile settings to climate-exposed regions.
