About us
Safety and Health
Safety and health are of paramount importance at AVITEC. Our aim is for zero safety incidents. We see this as an entirely realistic and achievable goal and are proud to say that, much of the time, we do live up to it.
Our people care. They are obligated and empowered to intervene and stop the work whenever they observe an unsafe situation. They understand that safety is everyone's responsibility.
Our HSE strategy is centered on 5 principles
Leadership
the shadow you cast
Employee engagement
greater engagement, fewer incidents
Contractor management
consistency and performance driven
Training
formalize, simplify, and standardize, with a refreshed learner experience
Compliance
do it right, first time
