Wood Group SAF/B/1.1 January 2012
Welcome to Wood Groups Health, Safety and Environmental Management System Standard.
Wood Group is an increasingly global business operating in over 50 countries. It is vital that we conduct all our operations, wherever they are, in a way that neither harms people nor the environment. We have moral, professional and legal obligations to deliver our services in ways that assure we protect peoples health, prevent incidents and injuries and minimise adverse environmental impact. Our commitment to that is clearly laid out in our HSE Policy Statement. We can only live up to that commitment if we organise ourselves in a planned, systematic way and that is why we have had a Wood Group HSE Management System in place for many years. The regularly revised document describing the system has become familiarly known over the years as the Red Book. This latest revision for 2012 has been significantly updated to reflect current best practice and to fit within the context of our recently launched Group core Values. Sections on Leadership, Human Factors and Integrity Management have been highlighted as especially relevant updates and the core Values have been included as a reminder of what we are committed to as an integral part of doing business. We emphasise the Safety & Assurance core Value as our top priority, and as it is colour coded in blue, we anticipate that this new revision of the Standard will become known as the Blue Book. The Blue Book contains sound advice for transforming our aspirations into practice and it is vital that Business and HSE leaders read, understand and apply it.

Our core Values

Within this Standard, you will see this expanded upon. It will variously use terms such as safety, assurance, security, quality and integrity. These are all valid and critical extensions of the Safety & Assurance core Value.
Safety & Assurance Safety & assurance is our top priority. We passionately care about the safety of our people and behave as safety leaders. We are committed to preventing injuries and ill health to our people and everyone we work with. Relationships Our business depends on healthy relationships with customers, business partners and suppliers. Social Responsibility Being socially responsible is integral to what we do. We aim to make a positive difference to the communities where we operate and seek ways to assist them. People People are our business. We are professional, high performing team players focused on delivering and drawing on our global expertise. Innovation Innovation gives us competitive advantage.
Well work in partnership with our clients, the regulators and our employees to deliver our HSE objectives.
Within this standard we set out the framework to protect the health of everyone that we work with and to sustain our operations free of incidents and injuries. An essential aspect of this is understanding human behaviour and assuring training and competence is appropriate to the risks encountered.
Within this Standard, the main extension of this core Value is in the area of environmental care, where we define our obligations and aspirations to reducing resource consumption, waste and any negative impacts of what we do.
HSE excellence is a sign of a successful business. We wont compromise HSE excellence for financial gain.
Financial Responsibility We expect to receive fair reward for our business performance. We are cost aware and carefully manage our own and our customers costs.
Well use both traditional continuous improvement techniques, as well as embracing innovation, to deliver our HSE objectives.
Integrity We are proud of our reputation, built over many years, which depends on us doing the right thing.
We will be honest, fair and open in our management of HSE.

Key elements
This document defines 15 key elements which the Group deems to be central to the establishment and deployment of an effective HSE Management System. The existence of controls in these key areas is not enough in itself. Leaders must enforce these controls. Leadership is a key element in ensuring that this document delivers its aims. The elements set out in this document will be adopted by each Business Unit and assessed to ensure effective and efficient application and compliance. Compliance with this HSE Management System Standard will be formally and periodically assessed by the Group. Learnings will be communicated both to the Business Unit concerned and to all Business Units who might benefit. Key Elements The following 15 elements give guidance, as well as providing minimum standards in formulating an HSE Management System appropriate to each Business Unit. Certain situations will demand much more and only by exception, will any require less.
01 Leadership 02 Objective setting 03 Organisation 04 Legislative compliance 05 Risk management 06 Health and community 07 Human factors 08 Training and competence 09 Information, documents and standards 10 Integrity management 11 Third parties and suppliers 12 Emergency preparedness and response 13 Environmental management 14 Incident reporting and investigation 15 Change management
How this book works
The 15 key elements which comprise the rest of this document are laid out to reflect the leadership responsibilities of those who can shape behaviours and culture (How we manage) allied with the system design, deployment and compliance aspects of each of the elements (What we manage). These two facing pages, when combined, reflect the principles of Plan, Do, Check, Act, with the leadership component focusing on Planning for success, Checking application and Acting on feedback, and the HSE professionals supporting this by Doing the appropriate system work, to the necessary extent. How we manage The How component, set out on each left-hand facing page, focuses on leadership, obligation to support, plan and resource, personal accountabilities and responsibilities of leaders. This is the Plan, Check, Act part of the process.

Objective setting Business Units will be aware of, and comply with, all Group HSE direction setting, including policy, objectives, plans, procedures and guidance documents. These shall be recognised and applied by each Business Unit, and supplemented by their own local policies, objectives, plans or client requirements as appropriate.
Leadership accountability Demonstrate compliance with the Group HSE Policy and ensure it is visibly displayed in all Business Unit premises with evidence of effective local promotion and application. Ensure actions to look at how policies and plans are deployed and effectively implemented within the Business Unit. Show personal participation in HSE activities.
t us n ten c io in o t c f e ir d
Requirements Group HSE objectives Business Units will demonstrate awareness and adoption of Group HSE policies and objectives. Local HSE objectives and annual plans Business Units will, if necessary, develop their own policies, objectives, plans, targets or other high-level declarations of HSE intent. These will be based upon and enhance Group requirements and/or reflect client and contract requirements. Maintain key documents Business Unit documents shall show evidence of periodic checks to assure currency, suitability and value-adding. Management review is a means to achieve this. Sustained focus Business Units should be rigorous in ensuring that a clear focus remains on safety-critical issues. We should not look to short-term solutions which may not be robust in the longer term. Quarterly reviews of objectives and plans should be considered. Annual formal reviews are expected. Communication Business Unit and HSE leaders will promote these high level documents personally and communicate these to all levels of the business. Personal objectives These will contain suitable HSE objectives to support delivery of overall Group and Business Unit objectives. Assurance and verification Business Unit reporting will routinely indicate progress to both Group and local HSE objectives and plans. Business Units will effect formal periodic reviews (or revalidations) of their HSE plans, objectives or other key documents.

Organisation The organisation created to manage and assure HSE delivery must be clear, defined and understood. Responsibility may be delegated to a nominated person, but accountability cannot; that will always remain with the Business Unit leadership.
Leadership accountability Ensure that the organisation of the Business Unit with regard to Health, Safety and Environmental management is defined, clear and understood. The HSE performance of the Business Unit is the primary accountability of the Business Unit leadership. People emulate the behaviours of leaders. Business Unit leaders must recognise this when establishing their HSE organisation and ensure that leadership behaviour is a facet of organisational design.
defined accountability
Requirements Accountability Everyone in the Business Unit must be clear that they variously carry certain moral and legal responsibilities and accountabilities for HSE. Accountability cannot be shared or delegated. Responsibility Responsibility can be shared or delegated. If this is the case, then this should be formal and clear. Competence The competence of individuals discharging roles within the Business Unit and its HSE organisation must be clear and appropriate for the task (ref. Key Element 8). Awareness People must be made aware of their HSE responsibilities, preferably by more than one method. Partnerships and joint ventures The impact on the Business Unit of this form of relationship will be formally assessed. Interfaces will be defined where necessary. There may be both internal and external interfaces to consider. Any case of applicable standards prevailing which are less stringent than those defined here will be made known to Group HSE. Management of change Change can have unintended consequence. The impact of all change, including organisational change, must be formally assessed and managed (ref. Key Element 15). Assurance and verification Leader, employee and contractor HSE responsibilities and accountabilities will be clear. HSE organisation will be defined. HSE competence will be assessed and managed. HSE will be included in annual appraisal processes.

Leadership accountability
Legislative compliance Business Units are subject to a wide range of compliance obligations embedded in local, regional, national and international legislative requirements. Business Units must develop and implement a systematic approach to identifying and demonstrating compliance with all applicable legislative requirements.
Ensure that a legislative compliance system is developed and implemented. Monitor compliance with the legislative requirements, address shortfalls and implement updated controls.
obligation verify
Requirements Legislative obligation Each Business Unit will identify all applicable HSE legal requirements affecting its business. A Register of applicable legislative requirements will be maintained. Legislative compliance Each Business Unit will develop a systematic approach which assesses compliance with all applicable HSE legal requirements. Nominated individual Each Business Unit will ensure that there is a nominated person responsible for tracking and monitoring all HSE legal requirements. Compliance and gap analysis Business Units must possess a full awareness of applicable legislative requirements and be able to demonstrate compliance. This process will be maintained as current. Any known failure to comply shall be communicated to Group HSE and Group Legal. Accessibility Documentation should be readily available and accessible where it is required. Records management Records must be maintained to verify compliance and ensure the periodic execution of legislative compliance reviews or audits. Assurance and verification Compliance monitoring Each Business Unit will conduct periodic reviews or audits to assess compliance. Findings identified in periodic reviews/audits must be tracked and monitored to ensure closure. Compliance reporting Any non-compliance must be reported to the Business Unit leadership, Group HSE, Group Legal and, where required, to external regulatory bodies (subsequent to consultation with Group Legal). Review/audit reports will form part of the record of this.

Risk management Business Units will establish processes to formally identify and understand hazards, and assess the HSE risks involved in all aspects of their business. These will be managed until they are eliminated, reduced or controlled to the point of being acceptable.
Leadership accountability Ensure hazards are clearly identified, and risks assessed and reviewed. Appreciate and understand the key risks to the safe execution of their business and periodically assure themselves that these risks are appropriately managed and mitigated. Maintain currency of process and identify and monitor changes which can introduce new risks.
identify, prevent, control and mitigate

Requirements Risk assessment A formal hazard identification/risk assessment process will exist. It will be appropriate to the severity of hazard liable to be encountered by the business. All potential hazard/risk elements will be considered, including the task itself, work environment, skill and competence, third parties, Business Unit, behaviour, human factors, emergencies and change management, as well as legal and regulatory obligations. Risk techniques Consideration should be given to the use of standardised and structured processes in risk assessment, such as the use of Risk Matrices, Residual Risk Calculations and Statistical Analyses. Risk scope The process must consider risk of harm to employees and third parties, environmental risk, business risk and reputational risk. Risk mitigation Approved recommendations/controls will be acted upon. Risks should be eliminated, substituted (by using a less hazardous method), reduced or controlled, exposure limited and people protected and/or warned. Residual risk Identified hazards will be managed such that the residual risk, if this cannot be eliminated entirely, will be managed so as to become as low as reasonably practicable. Training and competency Risks will be assessed by competent people (ref Key Element 8). Management of change Identify organisational, technical and legal changes which can introduce new risks to the Business Unit. Assurance and verification Records of Risk Assessment will exist. Risk mitigation, compliance and effectiveness will be formally determined and the extent of compliance known. Periodic audits will be conducted to demonstrate compliance. Appropriate documentation to verify compliance with applicable legislative requirements or standards will exist.

Health and community The managed and planned care for the health of our people is critical, as is the avoidance of harm to the communities in which we work. We must operate in a way which ensures this is achieved.
Ensure that both HSE and Human Resources management processes give due and formal regard to the protection of people from harm resulting from the work that they do. Care appropriately for them if these controls fail. Ensure that any processes and activities which can harm the health of our people or have an impact on communities are formally risk assessed, eliminated, reduced or the potential for harm mitigated. This will be done in a formal and structured manner.
protection awareness
Requirements Health risk awareness Business Units must be aware of any health hazards they may encounter. Employees should be informed and made fully aware of any inherent health risks, as well as the necessary protection and/or mitigation processes for any task which they undertake. Health assessment People joining a Business Unit will be assessed with regard to their capabilities and potential exposures, such as to eliminate or minimise any potential harm to their health. Health protection Business Units will protect employees from the effects of any processes they may work with or encounter. Typically, this will include elimination, protection or control of issues such as hazardous substances, noise, vibration, radiation, stress or poor ergonomics. Health surveillance A Health Surveillance Programme, appropriate to the hazards and risks encountered, will be implemented to detect any resultant ill health at an early stage and to safeguard the health of the employee. Communities and third parties Business Units will provide appropriate care for anyone negatively affected by our activities. This principle extends to non Group or Business Unit people negatively impacted by what we do. Assurance and verification Formal review of all cases of injury or harm to health versus controls and mitigations. Periodic review to ensure that controls and mitigations remain current and effective. Compliance with applicable local and national legislative requirements in this regard.

Human factors Business Units will consider and understand the role of Human Factors (HF) in initiating and mitigating incidents. All aspects of human behaviour, intentional and unintentional, organisational and personal, should be considered to help reduce the likelihood and consequences of serious incidents. HF include leadership, managing human failures, staffing, fatigue and shift work, safety critical communication, design, procedures, competence, organisational change and culture.
Leadership accountability Lead, support and actively participate in HF management programmes. Ensure sufficient and appropriate resources are made available to address HF within the business. Identify Safety Critical Tasks and how they may be negated by HF, to help identify, prevent, control and mitigate Major Accident Hazards. Develop improvement goals and associated metrics to monitor and measure the implementation and impact of HF management programmes.
support care
20
Requirements Planning A programme will be implemented to assess the potential impact of HF in all aspects of the workscope. Resources will be deployed to areas of maximum benefit. Safety culture Perform gap analysis to identify areas for improvement. Monitoring of feedback will support the success of wider HF programmes. Objectives and plans Monitoring and measurement processes will be used to evaluate the attainment of the HF programme plans and objectives. Incident investigation Investigations of incidents must contain an element of HF analysis to identify if a human failure has occurred and, if so, why. Employee involvement Employee Involvement programmes will be in place, led and actively promoted by line management to ensure that employees views on HSE issues which impact them are fully considered. Human interfaces with plant and process HF includes all aspects of human/process/plant interaction. Business Units will consider: the suitability of plant design for operation, maintenance, inspection and testing supporting activities including training, provision of guidance and procedures, change management, changing technology and process shift.

Defined expectations Business Units will establish clear expectations of HSE behaviours, at all levels. They will ensure these are publicised, applied and compliance assessed. They should be embedded in, for example, inductions, appraisals, job descriptions, competency assessments and incident investigations. Assurance and verification HF content in CAIRS reporting and incident investigations. HF content embedded in Business Units systems. Evidence of workforce involvement in, and contribution to, many aspects of the programme. Safety Culture Assessment processes in place.

Training and competence Group employees will only be asked to do work for which they are capable and competent. The more critical the work, the more rigorous the Business Unit processes to ensure competence in that task. Business Units must develop and implement a systematic approach to ensure training and competence is managed, appropriate to the risks encountered. Central to this will be formal processes to ensure all employees develop their HSE capabilities.
Ensure that suitable training and competence management processes exist in the Business Unit to ensure that risks to people and the environment are minimised or eliminated.
development knowledge
Requirements Training Employees should be adequately trained to perform their tasks, with appropriate supervision. Training provision Training and induction of new employees, specific training required for specialised tasks, training to ensure continuing capability and competence, as well as training to recognise new technology or systems should all be considerations with regard to training provision and its continuing effectiveness. Training providers Training providers or Trainers should be assessed for their own competence and suitability. Selection When allocating work, leaders must ensure that employees are capable of undertaking the task, such as not to pose a danger to themselves or others. HSE training Employees will be provided with suitable and sufficient training and induction to ensure that they are aware of HSE policies, obligations, standards, behaviours and processes with which they will be expected to comply. Competence All employees must have the appropriate knowledge, skills, capability and competence to carry out their tasks in a safe manner. They should be informed and aware of the hazards, risks and control measures. Competence should be formally determined, assessed and recorded. Training and competence currency Training and competence will be maintained as current, with formal processes established to ensure that training and competence arrangements are subject to periodic and formal review. Training and competence development Processes will exist to ensure all employees develop their HSE capabilities.

Information, documents and standards Business Units will operate a robust and accessible HSE information management system that reflects Group requirements, suits the needs of the individual Business Unit, permits adequate reporting and delivers factual, accurate and timely information into the Business Unit.
Ensure that Business Unit HSE documentation is understood and best practice is identifiable through readily accessible information, in whatever form. Ensure the awareness, understanding and, where necessary, implementation of Group HSE standards and guidance.
accessible guidance
Requirements Information Concise and correct HSE information will be used at all levels in a Business Unit as the basis for improvement. Information management will be formal and systematic to allow for system audit, analysis and improvement. Reporting Reports will be presented in a structured and uniform manner, providing clear, correct and consistent information. Records Each Business Unit will ensure that HSE records are maintained to comply with internal or external requirements, are fully auditable and suitably maintained. Contents Documents will be designed to contain the required information and contribute to a compliant and effective operation. Standards HSE documents will provide clear direction or agreed requirements to permit Business Units to function safely and effectively. Language and accessibility Information, documents and standards must be in a language and form appropriate to the user and accessible at point of use, where required. Assurance and verification Information, documents and standards management will routinely be included in audits or reviews to verify whether compliance is assured and efficiency maximised. Information, documents and standards will be regularly assessed as to their necessity and, when implemented, on their contribution to improved processes.

Third parties and suppliers Business Units will ensure that client and other third-party HSE requirements are met through deployment of trained, competent employees and appropriate HSE Management Systems. Business Units will manage risk importation to provide proportionate and auditable assurance that their suppliers and subcontractors meet that same standard. Third parties might be those to whom we supply items, or those who place demands upon us. While the control and arrangements will be different, they are both situations where the interfaces must be correctly defined and managed.
Ensure that all requirements placed upon third parties are appropriate, timely, understood and met. Ensure suppliers are fully aware of Group and Business Unit minimum HSE standards. Leaders may wish to provide Business Unit support to their suppliers to meet these, by sharing available HSE knowledge, good practice and providing feedback.
goals agreements
Requirements Risk identification Business Units will ensure that all third parties whose needs, obligations, provisions or performance can present HSE risk for Business Unit operations are identified and any potential risk managed effectively. Information received Business Units will ensure that correct and suitable information is exchanged between all third parties promptly and efficiently, such as to contribute to a safe working environment. This might include documents such as interface arrangements, dedicated HSE plans, policies and standards, drawings, specifications, material and test certification. Cooperation Business Units shall strive to ensure continuous improvement in third party performance through cooperation in training, information exchange and development. Risk management Business Units will employ risk-based decision making as a tool to select, manage and develop third party relationships. Benchmarking Business Units will use performance or relationship benchmarking to promote effective third party management. Assurance and verification Business Units will regularly review and audit third parties HSE performance, and the system which delivers this. Business Units will understand and benchmark their suppliers performance to be able to demonstrate compliance with Group and Business Unit HSE performance expectations.

Emergency preparedness and response Business Units will protect people, communities, the environment and the business through proactive and planned management response before, during and after emergency situations.
Ensure that emergency preparedness and response provisions are defined and specific to the Business Units individual needs. Ensure that individual Business Unit or operational emergency response arrangements reflect the needs of the Group. Ensure this planning is part of the annual HSE planning and review process.
practice readiness
Requirements Procedures and plans should be in place and current All potential emergency response events and corresponding control systems should be considered and designed as appropriate. Specific emergency response teams will be established People and teams will be suitably trained in emergency response situations, appropriate to the likely risks encountered. Exercises should be planned and carried out Scenarios might include fire, explosion, hurricane, earthquake, terrorist event, unstable regions, environmental incident, structural collapse and hostage taking. Exercises will occur at suitable and defined intervals, at least once per year. Interfacing Controls should include Corporate Communications, Human Resources, Security Consultants, Legal, Media, Emergency Services, Government Department and Non-Governmental Organisation liaison. Community The scope of this issue may extend outwith contractual boundaries of the Group or the Business Unit. Even if we are not liable or involved, we may wish to help or support the community in the event of a local emergency (ref. Key Element 6). Assurance and verification Audit programmes will address the activities above, particularly those not covered by exercises. Business Unit will record outcomes of exercises and show feedback to improve processes.

Incident reporting and investigation Business Units will follow Group procedures for incident reporting. All incidents will be reported promptly and accurately. Business Units will adhere to Group Guidelines on this area, and will have procedures in place to investigate incidents. Root causes of incidents will be identified and lessons will be learned, adopted and disseminated to prevent reoccurrence.
Ensure that Group procedures are applied and resources are available for appropriate incident reporting and investigation. Be familiar with all significant incident details and mitigations for their area of responsibility. Ensure that all actions arising from the incident investigations are followed through to completion in a timely manner and that key learnings are shared across the Group. Actively share, or seek out, learning from other parts of the Group and assess potential benefit to local Business Unit or operation.
learning prevention
Requirements Caring for people Business Units will ensure appropriate care and support is given to anyone injured on Group premises or by Group, or Group employees injured by the actions of others. Incident reporting All incidents will be reported in the Group online reporting system (CAIRS) within 24 hours of occurrence, as defined in the Group procedures. Statutory reporting requirements will be fulfilled. Business Units will require immediate, detailed internal reporting for incidents of a serious nature. Incident management Incidents will be managed to ensure that, in case of an injury or occupational illness, the most appropriate medical attention is provided and that an effective approach is in place for managing incidents. Incident investigation This will be conducted by trained individuals. The process will be planned, conducted and reported, and the findings appropriately communicated. Report closure Investigations will be formally reported. Actions will be identified, assigned and tracked to completion. Employees who were involved with the incident should be advised of the Business Unit investigation output and remedial work. Preventive actions will be risk-ranked to attend to the highest risks first. Trends and learning The Business Unit will undertake incident analysis, trending and benchmarking to assess performance against peers and industry, as well as to identify potential local issues. Business Units will show that the potential learning from each incident has been maximised, to the widest benefit. Assurance and verification Effective and compliant Business Unit reporting. Effective and recorded incident investigations. Effective action management to completion. Communication as befits the nature of the incident. Analysis and understanding of root causes and any wider trends.

Change management Business Units will apply an effective risk management approach to changes which might impact HSE, considering such aspects as organisational, procedural, material, equipment and process change. This will ensure the impact of such changes does not introduce new hazards into the workplace.
Understand that major organisational changes such as acquisitions and subsequent integration, mergers and downsizing are likely to lead to heightened risks of HSE failure, and devote sufficient time and resources to avoid such problems. Demonstrate their understanding of this requirement and commitment to ensuring changes are managed. Ensure that proposed changes are properly evaluated using a risk assessment approach prior to implementation. Ensure that any new, or modified, hazard or risk identified during this change review process has been understood and mitigated. This will be done in a formal and structured manner.
mitigation planning
Requirements Management of change No change that could jeopardise HSE management systems, equipment integrity or compromise process safety is to take place without a formal and systematic evaluation of its impact and the options for managing any potential new risk. The evaluation shall typically consider, but not be limited to, the following changes: Staffing levels and organisational changes, including changes in roles and responsibilities Process chemicals and substances Process operating conditions outside established and safe design limits (pressure, temperature, radioactivity, vibration, noise etc.) Technology, materials and equipment and their operating parameters Operating and maintenance procedures, standards and specifications Engineering design Protective systems, testing and inspection procedures and frequencies Critical documents, standards, procedures and legislative requirements etc Contracts and procurement Buildings, sites and facilities (including projects) Emergency response plans Gradual change and the cumulative effect of this Training and competency Personnel in positions authorised to make decisions regarding changes that affect the Business Unit must be trained and competent in risk assessment methodology (ref. Key Element 8). Assurance and verification Formal review of all proposed changes that can affect the HSE Management System, equipment integrity or process safety. Periodic assessment to ensure that controls and mitigations remain current and effective. Inclusion of Management of Change process into Business Unit audit processes.
