Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) Management
Aegis Chemical Solutions is committed to conducting its business in a way that supports incident-free operations for our employees, customers, the public, and the communities in which we operate.
Aegis is strongly committed to fostering and maintaining a safe work environment for its employees at all levels of management.
Commitment To Safety
Aegis is dedicated to continuous HSE improvement, where safety is more than just a priority—It is a value integrated into our culture. We aim to cultivate an environment where Stop Work Authority isn't just a policy but a true reflection of our expectations. If a situation arises that could potentially harm anyone, no matter the scale, we expect our employees to exercise this authority without hesitation.
Aegis also implements processes to ensure the effectiveness of our programs and training through HSE and Manager Field Engagements, which verify how work is carried out in the field. This approach ensures that our employees are working safely, have the proper tools and training to operate in an environmentally responsible manner, and provides an opportunity to gather employee feedback on ways to make Aegis safer and more efficient, all in support of continuous improvement.
