A robust safety culture is an essential ingredient to the success of our people and our business. Our health and safety work is guided by our commitment to prevent harm to peoples’ health and safety.
Zero Injuries
We believe that all incidents can be prevented. The overall QHSE Strategy in Odfjell Drilling is to maintain and further develop a safe operation by constantly driving continuous improvement towards zero injuries and failures.
Occupational Health & Safety
Our HSE Policy states that Odfjell Drilling shall maintain the highest safety standard in order to protect the health of our employees and others associated with our operations. It also sets out Odfjell Drilling’s continuous improvement approach to health and safety.
Management safeguard people through design of facilities, technical and non-technical barriers, proactive maintenance, risk management, emergency preparedness etc. in close cooperation with clients and suppliers.

Odfjell Drilling recognises the importance of diversity as an added value to our business activities, development plans, projects, growth and technology strategies.
Through policies we seek to improve diversity and inclusion activities in Odfjell Drilling. Diversity considerations are not limited to numbers of nationalities employed, but include a non-discrimination policy on nationality, religion, socio-economic status, race, age, gender, sexual orientation and any other factors irrelevant in a professional assessment of competence and personal characteristics.

Health & Well-Being
Ensuring that we have a good working environment, where employees can develop and feel part of the team, are two important aspects of health and well-being.
Ensuring a good working environment and sickness absence management is an important part of the work carried out in all our locations. By promoting health at work, and creating a safe workplace, we can effectively manage health and well-being.
Other means of ensuring a healthy workplace include resource planning and monitoring of workload, zero tolerance for bullying and harassment, and creating arenas for dialogue between employees and managers.
Responsible Employment & Labour Practices
