Preventive management and self-care

(403-5) SASB: EM-EP-320a.1. Our main teaching and training objective is to generate a culture of self-care, prevention and co-responsibility in the processes that our people are part of. This is a permanent and cross-sector part of occupational health and safety management.

Health and safety training and awareness processes for employees at GeoPark start with general induction and continue with specific training on risks associated with the activities they carry out, such as work at heights, confined spaces, lifting materials, dangerous atmospheres, Lock Out – Tag Out (LO/TO), manual lifting of loads, handling of dangerous substances, electrical risks, safe driving, and others.

The 2020 training and awareness plan reinforced hazard identification, the Authority to Stop an Activity (ADA), task observation, change management and Incident Reporting and Investigation System (IRIS). We implemented this plan through virtual activities and training at work sites for employees and contractors.
