Our framework for safety, health and wellbeing at work

Our comprehensive safety, health, and wellbeing management system applies throughout our business. The system is aligned with ISO 45001:2018 Occupational health and safety.

We conduct third party audits to check how well our systems are working and to track our performance.

Statistic Cards

19% of our operations hold ISO 45001 certification. Certification is driven by customer, contractual and operational needs. 

The health and safety management system houses our global minimum operating controls, and it applies across our Group entities.

Our contractors are expected to share our commitment to safety, health and wellbeing.

Inclusion

In FY2025 we improved the proportion of women senior leaders, through an increased focus on leadership accountability, use of data to oversee progress and decisions, and building the capability of decision makers.

Our Board has set new objectives for FY2026 to continue to advance gender diversity. Read more in our Annual Report 2025.
