Environment, Health and Safety We protect our people and the communities in which we operate.
THE GE WAY POLICY SPOTLIGHT
Stop work and alert management or EHS leadership if you are aware of unaddressed hazards or standards that are not being followed.
• We strictly comply with all the environment, health, and safety (EHS) laws that apply to our operations.
• We develop and follow safe work practices to ensure workplace safety and prevent injuries.
• We install, maintain, and monitor environmental controls to ensure our emissions meet legal limits.
• We assess the EHS risks of any new activity – whether designing a new product, selling in a new market, building a new factory, or buying a new business – and prepare our teams and sites accordingly.
YOUR ROLE
• Understand and comply with all EHS training assigned to you. • Follow GE EHS processes and procedures to find and fix EHS concerns at your site. When in doubt, ask your EHS leader.
• Question unsafe or improper operations you observe anywhere you work, including at GE facilities, customer and project sites.
• Stop any work which seems improper, unsafe, or about which you are uncertain.
