Safety Culture TOTAL has consistently developed a safety culture that mutually supports and involves active participation of all individuals, ranging from the employees, subcontractors, to other parties operating in the Company’s project site. Each individual in a project site is required to meet the Personal Protective Equipment standards by wearing helmets, safety shoes, body harnesses, vests, and other equipment as required according to the risk level. With regard to occupational health, TOTAL sees that health protection is a key point to ensure that employees are free from health threats and adverse conditions from activities related to the execution of construction projects.

Dissemination and Supervision on HSE Dissemination and supervision on occupational health and safety aspect have been routinely implemented through several means as follows:
TOTAL’s Occupational Safety Activities and Facilities Employees’ safety is the priority within TOTAL’s work environment. Hence, TOTAL always strives to provide the best for all TOTAL people by creating a favorable and positive work environment in order to protect all of its personnel. Within project execution, the project plans prepared by subcontractors are presented and discussed to achieve the same understanding regarding the standards of occupational safety. At the operational level, subcontractor’s workers are provided with preliminary safety briefings to shape their mindset and establish the expected working attitudes. All requirements for occupational safety are disseminated at the commencement of the tender process so that subcontractors can pre-calculate the cost components. Project plans that have been created by subcontractors will be presented and discussed to achieve the same understanding regarding occupational safety standards. The Company can also protect the rights of subcontractors and other third parties to obtain work safety, while at the same time safeguarding the Company’s assets and facilities through a well organized monitoring process. To create a safe environment at work, the Company continues to stress the importance of the following activities:
Safety Talk As a company engaging in construction sector, TOTAL realizes that the potential for accident occurring in the project is quite big. To anticipate the work accident from taking place and mitigate fatal loss, the Company conducts various activities and programs. One of the programs implemented for all personnel without any exception is the HSE Talk/Safety Talk.
Occupational Health Facilities Occupational health has become a crucial issue that needs to be addressed accordingly within TOTAL’s work environment. As the employer, the Company is bound to protect every employee’s health aspect in the workplace from the threat of health issues and adverse conditions caused by the occupational activities, especially related to the construction projects. To that end, the Company creates a healthy work environment, among others by assessing the impact of any activity/project on human and the nearby surroundings. Enforcement of the need for occupational health priority is shown by taking preventative measures to minimize employees’ health damage by providing routine medical checkups for employees every year. For workers engaged in the project sites, the medical checkup is performed in cooperation with Social Security Administrative Bodies (BPJS) or other local medical professionals. Such measures are also made by providing first aid point in each project area. Once a month, TOTAL also conducts mosquito fogging in the project areas to create and ensure healthy work environment for all employees. For employees suffering from health problems, TOTAL has assigned medical support for the checkup. The health record of such employees will be registered in a database to allow the data to be analyzed and to observe whether there is any trend of illness caused by the Company’s work environment or other causes. Thus, the Company could then take further actions as preventive measurements concerning such problems. To create a conducive and healthy workplace, the Company improves 2 (two) interlinking aspects, the employee’s health and workplace condition. |
