In daily operations as in crisis situations, performance reflects preparation. Just as our specialized crisis response teams maintain a high level of training and readiness, all of our employees are taught and reminded that environmental, health and safety is central to everything we do. The priority of safe, responsible operation is further reinforced by systematic performance audits and reviews. Our performance is measured in results. At Burlington Resources, we are more interested in performance than in promises.
Reactive monitoring focuses on incidents after they have occurred.
We encourage our employees and contractors to report all incidents and near misses. We investigate reports thoroughly to determine causes and implement successful corrective actions. Our goal in all instances is to understand exactly what has happened and why, so we can minimize the chance of a recurrence. It also helps us identify potential problems and avoid incidents. The performance indicators we use in our monitoring programs yield information we use to measure our performance against internal and industry standards.
