Our commitment to safety and environmental protection encompasses:
By doing everything we can in this area, we live up to our Safety value.
To protect the safety of our workers, Enbridge has comprehensive policies, practices, systems and controls in place. We take a proactive approach to identifying and preventing safety issues, take immediate action when a safety issue is identified and continually look for ways to improve our safety performance.
The contractors and subcontractors we work with are our partners in safety, and we expect them to be leaders in safety. We diligently monitor our contractors’ performance to ensure potential risks from their work activities are efficiently managed and mitigated.
Emergency preparedness and response requires a systematic approach to ensure that all hazards are identified and anticipated so that a response is rapid, effective and protective of workers, the public and the environment.
Enbridge has an incident management organizational structure that, depending on the nature and magnitude of the incident, can cover all levels of the organization—from the front-line worker to the executive leadership team—and can be activated immediately following an incident.
The Enbridge emergency management programs guide our efforts to be prepared for and respond to emergencies. These Emergency Management Programs are implemented at all of our business units, regularly reviewed by management and personnel, and periodically audited to ensure their continual improvement and proper functioning.
We have comprehensive emergency response plans that are regularly reviewed, audited, updated and tested.
