7.2 IHSE Policy
The LISI Group is certified at Group level to international standards
ISO 14001 & OHSAS 18001. ISO 14001 is an international standard relating
to environmental management, and OHSAS 18001, an international
standard for occupational health and safety management systems.
In 2018, the follow-up audit confirmed that the Group had matured with
respect to health and safety and the environment.
When the certification was renewed in 2020, LISI decided to request
certification to ISO 45001, a new international standard relating to
occupational health and safety management systems referenced by the
International Standard Organisation (ISO).
LISI has adopted an HSE policy which embodies its expectations and its
vision of Operational Excellence in the field of Health-safety and the
Environment.
For the LISI Group, its legal and moral obligations in the field of HSE
involve:
■■Everyone coming home after work in good health;
■■Improvement in working conditions;
■■Implementation of environmentally responsible processes;
■■Compliancewith its obligations relating to safety and the environment.
To meet this level of excellence, LISI’s Management Committee has
undertaken to be an example, be vigilant and be proactive on the field on
a daily basis.
LISI also adopted a structuring program, LISI Excellence HSE, which is
the engine of its management system.
This program hinges on fifteen areas of continuous improvement, three
of which are the fundamental:
■■Assessing andmanaging our risks;
■■Having HSE rules common to all;
■■Changing to safer behaviors.
