Demonstrating the energy to lead with our health and safety strategy

Technology focuses on best practice standards and five basic principles
From site managers to engineers in the office and from technicians on site to executives at their desks: everyone at RWE Technology is responsible for safety, health and the environment.
Employee protection has the highest priority at RWE Technology GmbH. The focus is not on the response to accidents; it is on well-planned, preventive health and safety management. To ensure that the standards can be achieved by all parties, we have put in place a unified strategy that defines guidelines, principles and methods – standards that also create added value for the entire RWE Group.
The five principles
The health and safety strategy is based on five principles. Firstly: "actions, not words." Health and safety is priority number 1 at RWE Technology – not just in words but in deeds. We must advance safely as we show the energy to lead. The other principles follow on from this:
- Actions, not words
- Good corporate governance requires health and safety management
- Clear leadership
- Versatile protection measures reduce risk significantly
- Upstream management saves money and increases benefits
