Our Approach and Performance

Our EHSS policy is a pillar of our 2025 manufacturing strategy, provides an overall direction to the whole organization, and forms the basis that drives our efforts and journey towards EHSS improvement.

Our EHSS strategy is focused on enhancing employee competency to identify the process-hazard risks in assessments and provide high-quality risk-mitigation recommendations. In addition, we have developed several proactive/leading and reactive/lagging KPIs (EHSS Maturity) to monitor the performance of all SABIC entities globally. The objectives of this initiative are to:

– Push for strong and sustainable EHSS performance in our sites around the world.

– Bring visibility to SABIC leaders.

– Ensure proper focus on Safety, Health & Environment Management (SHEM) key aspects for implementation.– Provide an accountability overview across all layers of SABIC Leadership.

– Allow for internal and global benchmarking of EHSS KPIs.

– Provide insight to address chronic issues.

– Deliver valuable input for the site SHEM Audit team(s).

– Provide a mechanism to support Focus-Site identification.

As EHSS becomes an integral part of our business strategy, we anticipate further opportunities to improve our EHSS approach. We aim to achieve these improvements by expanding our programs and working with stakeholders to develop better processes that will contribute to a higher EHSS performance. We will monitor emerging developments and trends in the world that will benefit SABIC in improving its EHSS, strengthen its disclosures in accordance with standardized criteria, and promote EHSS awareness to ensure SABIC’s efforts yield positive results in the years ahead.
