2018 Results
The H&S Leadership Team wishes you a safe New Year!
We now have consolidated results entered in iCare for 2018, thanks for
your work. These results will still have to be validated by an external
auditor.
In 2018, 43 people lost their lives in activities related to our operations.
This is 43 lives too many, but it represents a reduction of -34% compared
to 2017 (65 fatalities) and -50% compared to 2016 (86 fatalities).
The number of fatalities has been halved in less than 2 years, which is a
significant achievement.
On-site Fatalities reduced from 17 in 2017 down to 4 in 2018, representing
a reduction of 77%. Off-site, non-road fatalities went from 3 in 2017 up to
5 in 2018, representing a concerning significant deterioration (+66%!): this
will need to be addressed in 2019.
Ab​out L​TIFR, Group has reached the Stretch Objective with a final 2018
figure at 0.79, ​an improvement of 13% compared to 2017 (0.91) and 23%
compared to 2016 (1.03). The process to set 2019 LTIFR Objectives
Country by Country has started.
We’ve made progress in 2018… however our foundations are very fragile
and the disastrous start of 2019 is a tragic reminder that everyone must
remain mobilized at all times to avoid incidents.

Since the 1st of January, Group H&S incident reporting is following the
GCCA reporting guidelines.
A guideline for safety reporting has been issued last November by the
