At Genesis, we believe that long-term value in our business performance and HSSE excellence go hand-in-hand. Our vision is to conduct our operations in an incident-free workplace. We work toward this goal by ensuring the physical security of our premises and minimizing the occupational health and safety risks at our work sites.

We strive to create and sustain a workplace free from recognized safety and health hazards. We accomplish this goal through our HSSE Management System. Our HSSE Management System consists of our HSSE principles, policies, procedures, work instructions, and guidelines.
We promote our HSSE Management System to ensure that Genesis expectations are understood and followed throughout the organization through a variety of means, such as training, audits, inspections, incident management and evaluation, lessons learned, safety performance data analysis, reporting, and communications. We have a staff of trained and dedicated safety professionals who help to implement our HSSE Management System throughout the different levels and business segments of our organization.
We pursue continual improvement of our safety performance across all our business segments and establish targets to improve our health and safety performance year over year. Since we operate very diverse and unique business segments, our overall TRIR and LTIR rates are not relatable to that of our peers. As a result, we compare Genesis’ previous years’ targets and results in order to set meaningful goals for the future.
We review contractor safety statistics as part of our contractor qualification process and collect and review recordable incidents and hours for key contractors.
