Whenever bp conducts construction, maintenance, demolition, remediation and other similar work that are typical of our industry, there is the potential for risk and harm to people and the environment and for damage to equipment
Control of work
Therefore, an effective control of work process provides a work environment that allows tasks to be completed safely and without unplanned loss of containment with the potential to cause environmental damage or to damage a plant or equipment.
The control of work procedures set out a required approach for bp employees and contractors to manage work risk.
Life Saving Rules for contractors
bp life saving rule
This short video is to support Life Saving Rule (LSR) roll-out addressing why we've adopted the rules, what they are and what's expected of those doing LSR-related work. The video is a tool for opening LSR discussions with teams, helping businesses transitioning from bp's Golden Rules, including within site and business inductions.
bp has adopted the Life Saving Rules (LSR) developed by the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (IOGP), to help our employees and contractors instantly recognise and understand the rules that help keep us safe.
On the page linked below you will find resources to help you understand what the Life Saving Rules are and how you can implement them. Contractors comprise over half of our global workforce and about two thirds of industry fatalities. This site helps our contracting companies across the globe to access LSR materials developed by bp, alongside IOGP (and other industry organisations’) materials.
HSSE requirements for contractors
The purpose of this document is to specify the health, safety, security and environment (HSSE) requirements for contractors engaged to perform works for bp under any form of contract for services. It is agreed that this document forms part of any contract between bp and a contractor for work that is to be performed at any BP site or location, or for works under bp’s control.
The safety and wellbeing of workers and customers is our top priority. bp want contractors to make the safety and wellbeing of themselves, co-workers, other workers and our customers their top priority as well.
