In the framework of spreading a common safety culture in all the Group’s industrial facilities, a common basic training procedure (fire safety, rescue techniques, first aid, etc.) is applied and leadership seminars (from directors to anyone who has managerial responsibilities) are held.

Employees’ educational needs are determined each year by their immediate supervisors, in the context of their annual performance appraisals, and actions are planned to meet any needs that are identified.

Training is extended, besides employees, to contractors, customers, tank drivers, petrol station owners, students and school pupils. Visitors are provided with a leaflet informing them about the on site safety instructions.

Specifically contractors’ training is based on presentations given by Safety Engineers as well as written exams; only successful applicants are granted admission cards to work on site.
