ORGANIZATIONAL OWNERSHIP FOR HEALTH, SAFETY, AND ENVIRONMENT Our HSE team is responsible for executing and monitoring the success of our global safety strategy, policies, and procedures. At the beginning of 2024, we restructured the team to create separate pillars for ownership of safety and environmental initiatives. This new structure has streamlined communication, enhanced support for operations leaders and team members, reduced workplace incidents, and lessened our environmental impact.

Safety Action Teams Drive Shared Responsibility S&C has 14 safety action teams (SATs) that engage team members in identifying and remediating potential safety risks. All team members have an opportunity to serve on an SAT for their department or team on a rotating basis. SAT responsibilities include: • Completing regular “Go-and-See” inspections and addressing any safety concerns that are identified • Managing our Quick-Fix program, which addresses problems or hazards that can be addressed immediately • Organizing safety awareness and promotion campaigns • Providing targeted safety programs based on data analysis • Conducting accident/incident investigations and reporting findings • Owning progress and resolution of identified safety improvement opportunities We also have a Safety Steering Committee, composed of one representative from each SAT as well as senior leaders from production operations. The committee meets regularly to review each team’s progress and share best practices.

Respect for People is a fundamental Value & Guiding Principle and forms the foundation for our companywide safety goal: to be injury free. We emphasize the importance of safe work practices starting on every team member’s date of hire and reiterate those behaviors throughout their career at S&C. We consider safety a team sport, and we uphold a culture of shared responsibility through a safety-first mentality. Team members are guided by the principle: “If you see something, say something and, most importantly, DO something.”

In 2024, the SATs completed 140 job safety analyses and more than 4,500 quick fixes.
