Our beliefs
There is nothing more important than protecting the health and safety of our employees and those who live and work adjacent to our operations.
All workplace injuries and illnesses can, and must, be prevented.
Communication, engagement and training of all employees are essential elements in health and safety excellence.
All members of our teams are responsible for preventing dangerous situations and working safely.
We are committed to always working tirelessly toward achieving zero injuries and illnesses. To bring this commitment to fruition, we are implementing concrete actions.
Environment
We operate active job sites on multiple continents, making the world our workplace. We are therefore committed to preserving ecological balance. It is essential for us to always work toward minimizing the impact of our operations on the environment.
To achieve this, we are opting more and more for the use of biodegradable products in our operations. Special attention is given to prioritizing fuel-efficient equipment. We also ensure to comply with standards for handling and disposing of hazardous waste and those for dust emission during drilling and blasting.
Safe and conscientious operations are the key to our commercial success. With the implementation of our environmental policies, we promise to ensure the preservation of our natural environment and the surrounding areas.
We have specific systems in place on our drills to mitigate dust during our drilling operations. We also ensure that vibrations are effectively controlled during our blasting operations to meet or exceed industry standards. To guarantee success, we use state-of-the-art seismic monitoring equipment, proprietary blasting simulation software and specific tools for precision control.
“We are committed to protecting the environment. As a leader in the drilling and blasting industry, it is our responsibility to follow industry best practices to minimize environmental impacts.”
