Health & Safety

Think first, behave safe.

MAINTAINING A HEALTHY AND SAFE WORK ENVIRONMENT

We deeply care about our employees, and securing a safe place to work is the top priority in our people strategy. We therefore continuously invest in health and safety across all our operating companies. Our Group-wide Health & Safety Compass program “Think first, behave safe” –guides us in maintaining our physical health by minimizing the risk of accidents and related injuries during our day-to-day business.

The program is supported by an online platform and mobile app, where practical roadmaps, behavioral guidelines, communication materials, and toolboxes are available for daily consultation and continuous training. Employees can report any unsafe situation via the platform or app, enabling BME to quickly identify risks and areas for improvement.

Our Health & Safety Compass program has five focus areas:

  • Employee safety: All employees are informed and trained in BME’s safety guidelines, both during their onboarding and on an ongoing basis.
  • Cleanliness and tidiness: All working areas must be clean and organized to ensure efficient working, reduce stress, achieve a higher quality of work, and reduce the risk of injuries and accidents.
  • Site safety: All contractors, customers, visitors, and suppliers at our locations must comply with our health and safety guidelines. It is our duty to inform or train them properly.
  • Workplace safety: Relevant guidelines must be available and clearly communicated in all work areas and/or workstations. A safe entry to the work area must be ensured at all times.
  • Health: We are dedicated to addressing ergonomic and mental health risk factors in the workplace.
