Personal Safety Management
Personal Safety Management GRI 403-7 (2018) GRI 403-4 (2018)
GC is committed to promoting the operations of employees and contractors in compliance with safety regulations and fostering continuous safety awareness. GC has set targets for Personal Safety Management and regularly monitor results through clear indicators, such as TRIR (Total Recordable Injuries Rate) at 0.45 cases per one million man-hours, with a long-term target of less than 0.35 cases per one million man-hours by 2027, and the target for LTIFR (Lost Time Injuries Frequency Rate) at 0.00 case per one million man-hours.
GC analyzes historical statistical data and benchmarks against global standards to identify approaches for enhancing the safety culture that align with sustainability framework and encompass employees at all levels. As a result, the company’s personal safety statistics are placed in the 1st Quartile according to the standard of International Association of Oil & Gas Producers (IOGP). In this regard, we analyze other safety data to develop the Life Saving Rules.
Life-Saving Rules
Always use safety harness when working at height
Always operate according to work permit
Assess energy isolation prior to working
Always operate according to working in confined space permit
Always operate according to first-time startup equipment standards. (First Line Breaking Practice)
GC has implemented the several personal safety projects, including Onsite Supervision with Permit to Work using e-PTW, e-JSEA and e-LOTO Early Detect Low-Performance Contractors, and Risk Management using Engineering Control.
Personal Safety Support Initiatives
Onsite Supervision with Permit to Work using e-PTW, e-JSEA and e-LOTO GRI 403-7 (2018)
GC has implemented the Onsite Supervision with Permit to Work project to strengthen execution on-site. The Company has employed the digital system to further develop electronic permit systems, namely Electronic Permit to Work (e-PTW), Electronic Job Safety Environment Analysis (e-JSEA), and Electronic Lock Out/Tag Out (e-LOTO), which contribute to reducing human error, optimizing efficiency in controlling and monitoring potential on-site hazards
Risk Management using Engineering Control : Special tools GRI 403-7 (2018)
Based on the assessment of worker safety risks, including accident and injury statistics, it was found that most accidents occur to workers' hands and fingers. GC therefore launched the Hand Injuries Awareness Program in 2017 to reduce injury rates among employees and contractors. The company has developed special tools to minimize risks and accidents to hands and fingers, such as handle lock and slugging wrench with spring-loaded handles. Additionally, GC has prepared equipment manuals for workers to provide operational guidelines and appropriate tool selection for each type of task.
GC has categorized tasks with high hand injury risk into 7 groups of special tools, namely: 1) Handle lock and slugging wrench, 2) Hydraulic flange spreader, 3) Wage, 4) Flange alignment, 5) Pipe mover, 6) Grating lifter, and 7) Automated high pressure water jet (HPWJ) cleaning equipment.
Furthermore, to ensure operations cover the entire value chain, GC has enhanced the requirements for contractor selection and evaluation, as well as promoted the development of a Special Tool Matrix as a guideline for proper tool selection and control to ensure that the correct and complete special tools are available on-site in accordance with the risks identified in each work procedure."
Early Detect Low-Performance Contractors GRI 403-7 (2018)
GC continues to improve contractor safety management by establishing a process to early detect low-performance contractors in an effort to prevent serious accidents that may occur to contractors. Accordingly, daily performance inspection and evaluation are conducted by supervisors and area owners. In addition, weekly Coaching & Feedback is provided for low-performance contractors. Furthermore, contractor performance is incorporated into the quarterly and annual supplier evaluation process.
In 2025, GC has adjusted its strategy to enhance the project by encouraging greater participation from Job Owners and Area Owners in these activities. Additionally, the company has strengthened penalties for violations of critical safety regulations at both individual and company levels.
Strengthen critical safety procedure GRI 403-7 (2018)
Operation Risk Management (ORM): Strengthen mitigation barrier of Tank fire by ORM
In 2025, GC prioritized strengthening chemical safety procedures by developing safety standards for working with acidic and alkaline chemicals, including chemical loading and unloading from trucks and chemical handling by external contractors. As a result, these initiatives have reduced safety risks, prevented equipment damage, established consistent work standards across all business units and plants, and enhanced the reliability of the maintenance system.
GC has strengthened the safety standards and reliability of operating sites by establishing additional occupational safety requirements in the Service Level Agreement and defined OHS criteria for contracts and procurement requirements (OHS criteria introduced in procurement and contractual requirements). Suppliers are required to possess working permit and have safety management systems as well as safety measures for their personnel. Furthermore, GC has managed its supplier risk by verifying the qualifications of suppliers.
GC conducts assessments of suppliers’ safety performance on an annual basis. The Supplier ESG Audit has also been implemented for suppliers in order to ensure that quality suppliers and contractors are sourced in line with GC’s safety standards. Furthermore, GC has established the Occupational Health, Safety and Workplace Committee which consists of representatives from employees to oversee the company’s safety operations and organize monthly meetings to monitor performance progress.
Based on the implementation and ongoing monitoring and evaluation of the company's occupational health and safety performance, in 2025, the TRIR was on a downward trend at 0.16 per 1 million man-hours, and the LTIFR was on a downward trend at 0.09 per 1 million man-hours as well.
GC commits to improving our safety operations and aims to demonstrate good safety leadership within the organization.
