EHS&S Stewardship

SABIC Innovative Plastics has implemented world-class Environmental, Health, Safety & Security (EHS&S) programs at all of its manufacturing facilities globally.  The foundation and core principles of our EHS&S programs are based on the goals of:

  • 100% compliance
  • safe operations
  • minimized environmental impact
  • healthy employees
  • strong security systems
  • good relationships with the communities in which we operate

These programs tie in closely with our strong governance and integrity policies. We have clear management commitment to compliance and protecting the environment, our employees and our communities, and we have policies and guidelines in place to meet expectations.

We have a long history of controlling and continuously improving our EHS&S performance, and each year we have established new goals and objectives for continued improvement.  Progress on meeting our EHS&S objectives and targets is closely monitored through a performance tracking system.

SABIC Innovative Plastics sites use a comprehensive electronic EHS&S management system that consists of more than 40 digital applications with multi-lingual interfaces. This system has allowed consistent documentation of site operating data, event and incident tracking, management tools, permit & regulatory compliance information, and other data from across all our sites for accurate comparison and consistent management.

Operations responsibility for compliance and performance are key to program success.

The following are reviewed periodically:

  • Global progress in meeting goals and site-specific objectives and targets
  • Possible modifications to elements of the EHS&S Management System
  • Key accomplishments in the last 12 months
  • Critical actions, programs and projects planned for the next 12 months

Our goal is to be a global EHS&S leader, have world-class programs and performance and continuously strive for improvement in all of our operations. 

Our business has implemented a global environmental management system (EMS) at all of its manufacturing facilities.  Nearly all of our plastics manufacturing facilities have been certified to the ISO 14001:2004 standard by LRQA, an accredited 3rd party auditor.
