Today, April 28, is World Day for Safety and Health Day at Work.
In SAR, we want to mark this by making our followers aware of this.
The annual World Day for Safety and Health at Work on 28 April is organized by the United Nations International Labor Organization (ILO), and promotes the prevention of occupational accidents and diseases globally.
It is an awareness-raising campaign intended to focus international attention on the magnitude of the problem and on how promoting and creating a safety and health culture can help reduce the number of work-related deaths and injuries.
How do we work in SAR to ensure safety and health for our employees?
To embrace the World Day for Safety and Health at work, means that we care and work to ensure that all employees are safe at work and come home safely to their loved ones. We do this by describing all critical processes, having procedures with associated checklists for all work that has a risk in it, and conducting "SJA" (safe job analysis) with involved parties if an assignment is to be carried out for which we do not have a prepared procedure.
SAR has implemented the 9 life-saving rules issued by the IOGP (International Association of Oil & Gas Producers). Many people around the world lose their lives in work accidents. Most could have been avoided if simple safety rules had been observed.

SAR has also selected 6 of the UN's sustainability goals that we will focus on:
- (#3) Good health
- (#4) Good education
- (#8) Decent work and economic growth
- (#9) Innovation and infrastructure
- (#12) Responsible consumption and production
- (#17) Collaborate to achieve goals
We have made these sustainability goals our own and said something about what it means for SAR. SAR is a transparent and open organization, with several arenas for interdisciplinary open dialogue between all levels.

Employees are encouraged to make suggestions for improvement, and are involved where routines are prepared and risk assessments are carried out that are relevant to their work.
