Health, Safety and
Environment
Corporation Berhad (“WSC” or “the company”)
has a long-standing Health, Safety and
environment (“HSE”) commitment to the
highest standards for the health and safety of
our employees, customers and contractors as
well as to the protection of the environment
in the communities in which we live and work.
The Company is committed to constantly improving
workplace and environmental safety, consistent with
international best practice. HSE is deeply embedded
within our business culture as we prioritise
continuous improvement in health and safety by
reducing accident, occupational injury and work-
related illness rates.
In 2014, Wasco Coatings Malaysia Sdn Bhd (“WCM”)
achieved 2.6 million safe man-hours with one
Lost Time Injury (“LTI”). Its HSE programmes were
thoroughly planned and carried out throughout the
period under review in compliance with stringent
industry standards and regulatory requirements.
Several audit sessions were performed by clients and
also internal parties for continuous improvement of
WCM’s overall HSE practices.
To strengthen HSE efforts, Wasco developed and
launched Wasco Communication, Alignment,
Responsibility, Effort (“Wasco C.A.R.E.”) – a new
safety campaign that focuses on creating an incident
and injury-free worksite through a shared sense of
responsibility and caring between the workforce
and management. The campaign was supported
by “Think Safe Act Safe”, which illustrates 10 Non
Compromising Safety Rules, as well as a series of
advertising campaigns. The campaign was rolled
out at our plants in Mo’i Rana, Norway and Kuantan,
Malaysia, where industry leaders and Wasco Energy’s
clients such as Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd (“PCSB”),
Sarawak Shell Berhad and Statoil ASA were also
present. The campaign saw 130 participants in
Mo’i Rana and close to 700 participants in Kuantan
taking part in games, safety exhibition booths and
other safety related activities which included the
“Hands and Fingers Campaign” where employees
submitted videos showing the importance of their
hands and fingers.
