Corporate Governance

How Abyres looks after its people, its environment and the trust of its clients and partners.

Occupational Safety & Health

Occupational Health and Safety Policy

The Company acknowledges its responsibility to ensure that all work activities are conducted in accordance with high standards of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) practices for the well-being of employees, contractors, and visitors. In turn, all employees share this responsibility and are expected to support management in maintaining a safe and injury-free workplace.

Our Safety Policy is founded on the principles of the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 (OSHA 1994) and its 2022 amendment, reflecting our firm commitment to maintaining a safe, healthy, and hazard-free work environment. We recognize our duty as an employer to protect our employees by implementing effective safety measures, providing continuous training, and fostering a culture of safety across all levels of the organization.

We are committed to achieving this through:

  1. Abyres is dedicated to ensuring full compliance with OSHA 1994, its amendments, and all other relevant safety regulations and standards.
  2. We proactively identify, assess, and mitigate workplace hazards through comprehensive risk management practices.
  3. We provide ongoing safety training, educational resources, and practical guidance to ensure all employees are competent in safe work practices.
  4. We promote a workplace culture where safety is a shared responsibility, encouraging open communication and accountability at every level.
  5. We are committed to the ongoing enhancement of our Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) performance through regular reviews, audits, and adoption of industry best practices.

Abyres actively supports safer workplaces not only within our organization but also in our engagements with clients and partners. We offer practical safety resources such as training manuals, checklists, and advisory services to assist organizations in meeting their safety objectives.

Our goal is clear: zero accidents, zero harm, and a healthy, empowered workforce.

ESG & Sustainability

Building a sustainable, responsible and ethical business

For Abyres, ESG goes beyond environmental impact. It covers how we treat our people, how we engage our communities and partners, and how we govern our business. We see it as a continuous journey, measured with data and reviewed regularly.
