HSED conducts various campaigns throughout the year, all aimed at increasing the level of awareness of our employees and of our contractor community. Some of the campaigns are highlighted below.

Yearly Heat Stress campaigns are conducted in an effort to ensure that our employees and contractors are aware of the dangers associated with exposure to adverse climate, and how they should protect themselves. In 2007, an extensive heat stress campaign was carried out in all ADCO fields & terminal. Multilingual education materials (posters, pamphlets etc) were distributed in six languages. Self monitoring dehydration index cards were also distributed and were widely used by individuals during peak summer times.

Road and vehicle related crashes continue to be one of the main causes of fatalities and injuries around the world. One of the main challenges is to change the behavior of drivers and repeated campaigns are conducted to ensure that positive behaviors are reinforced and that drivers are up to date with latest information. In 2007, a campaign entitled “Their Lives in Your Hands” targeted ADCO and contractor employees in fields/terminal and Abu Dhabi.

An environmental campaign, “Green Office” was conducted with the aim to; improve energy management, improve water and waste management and to encourage environmentally responsible purchasing. By reducing the use of consumables in offices; such as paper, cartridge, water and electricity we will conserve our natural resources thus ensuring a better environment for our future generations. We will also uphold the reputation of our company as being an environmentally friendly company
