The systematic HSE[!] work in Telenor applies equally to all employees, irrespective of geographical location and organisational affiliation. It stresses the importance of result-orientated work based on periodical reporting and assessment of key figures from all parts of the organisation. The illustration presents a simplified picture of the systematic HSE work in Telenor.
The systematic HSE work takes the form of an evaluation loop. The starting-point for the planning of HSE activities is management's annual review of the current statistics and earlier reports on, for example, training, health assessment and audits. Periodic documentation and following up of results shall ensure that Telenor's companies and departments adheres to those objectives which have been established for conditions which affect the working environment, health and personal safety.
The systematic HSE work is documented in the form of clearly set out corporate procedures. These shall form a unified tool for the employees of Telenor in their efforts to develop the working environment. Printed instructions and assessment forms are available for the procedures. The use of unified procedures, instructions and forms assists in making the systematic HSE work less dependent on individuals and more easily recognisable in the case of organisational changes.
