Operational Excellence

ACT values safety over production as the main asset for its manpower. In another word, ACT cares for each employee working in any ACT facility. To ensure the safety of each person, reliability of equipment and the quality of production, ACT put in place the “Tenets of Operation”; 

  • Never operate equipment outside of design or environmental limits. 
  • Always move to a safe, controlled condition, and seek assistance when a situation is not understood. 
  • Always operate with safety devices in service.
  • Always follow all safe work practices/procedures and act to stop unsafe conditions and actions. 
  • Always produce a product that meets or exceeds your customers’ requirements.
  • Never contaminate or compromise a dedicated system. 
  • Always report environmental, health, and safety compliance information accurately and on time.
  • Always address abnormal conditions and clarify/understand procedures before proceeding. 
  • Always follow written procedures for high risk or unusual situations. 
  • Always involve people with expertise and firsthand knowledge in decisions, improvements and changes.

Tenets are intended to protect people, the environment, and equipment based on three common sense principles: 

  • DO IT SAFELY or NOT AT ALL! 
  • THERE’S ALWAYS TIME TO DO IT RIGHT! 
  •  IF IT’S WORTH DOING, DO IT BETTER!
Policy Statement 

Arabian Chemical terminals (ACT) aim to continually improve the products and services, we provide to meet our client’s requirements and to produce finished work that Arabian Chemical terminals (ACT) can justifiably be proud of. 

Every employee or third party working at Arabian Chemical Terminals (ACT) should be able to go home at the end of the working day without injuries or caused harm in any possible way. Eliminating risk as low as reasonable possible (ALARP) for all persons is a key element underpinning all operations undertaken by Arabian Chemical Terminals (ACT). This requires a continuous effort from everybody involved.

SSHEQ

We can only achieve this if each employee or third party at Arabian Chemical Terminals (ACT) understands the risks, realizes the critical importance of safety and knows what to do at all time and safely. Therefore we have compiled the 

Safety, Security, Health and Environmental (SSHEQ) guide

That provides guidance. Arabian Chemical Terminals (ACT) expects that every individual is familiar with and applies this guidance. The safety of everyone depends on our commitment to these Safety, Security, Health and Environmental (SSHE) guide at all times, in all circumstances. 

The SSHEQ Officer of ACT is responsible for monitoring the Safety, Security, Health and Environmental (SSHE) system and reports regularly to Management and team on the system’s implementation, status and effectiveness.
