The Importance of Safety Culture

At ATCO Marine, safety is not just a priority; it is embedded in our culture. A strong safety culture creates an environment where employees feel safe to report near-misses and unsafe conditions without fear of backlash. This proactive approach not only improves workplace safety but also boosts overall productivity.

The recognition from Aramco emphasizes the need to foster a safety-first mindset among all team members. By placing safety at the forefront, we protect our workforce and ensure the sustainability of our operations.

Near-Miss Reporting: A Key Component

Near-miss reporting is essential to our safety strategy. It documents incidents that could lead to injury or damage but did not. By identifying potential hazards, we can implement measures to prevent actual accidents.

Our team on ATCO Tamara has excelled in this area, displaying commitment and diligence worthy of this award.

Acknowledging Our Team

A hearty congratulations goes to Mostafa Saad, our QHSE Manager, who accepted the award on behalf of ATCO Marine from Aramco’s QHSE Manager. Mostafa's leadership has been key in nurturing a culture of safety excellence in our organization.
