To win the Gold Award, the contractor must operate at the site without any recordable injuries and lost-time accidents. They must also demonstrate the willingness to work in tandem with Shell employees to make the work site a safer place for everyone. The purpose of the Product Stewardship Code of Management Practices is to make health, safety, and environmental protection an integral part of designing, manufacturing, marketing, distributing, using, recycling, and disposing of our products. The Code provides guidance as well as a means to measure continuous improvement in the practice of product stewardship. The scope of the Code covers all stages of a product's life.
Successful implementation is a shared responsibility.
Everyone involved with the product has responsibilities to address society's interest in a healthy environment and in products that can be used safely. All employers are responsible for providing a safe workplace, and all who use and handle products must follow safe and environmentally sound practices.
