2025
At Aboitiz Construction, we place the highest value on occupational health and safety, recognizing that our employees’ well-being is essential to our success.
As of June 2025, we have proudly achieved 32,991,451 accumulated safe man-hours without a Lost Time Incident, a testament to our strong commitment to workplace safety.
This achievement highlights the effectiveness of our safety protocols, continuous training, and a culture that puts safety first. By empowering our workforce to operate confidently and responsibly, we protect our people, boost productivity, and sustain a positive workplace where safety is a shared responsibility by all.
Our safety, health, environment, and security (SHES) programs go beyond compliance to proactively safeguard lives, protect the environment, and ensure business continuity. These are implemented across all projects, continuously reviewed for relevance, and driven by our commitment to the Aboitiz Way of operational excellence.
Our unified policy integrates quality, environmental, and occupational safety and health systems. Endorsed by top management, it reflects our leadership’s commitment to upholding internationally recognized standards while building a culture of continuous improvement across all sites.
We apply a systematic approach to identifying, evaluating, and controlling SHES-related risks—aligned with enterprise-wide risk frameworks. This includes both operational risks (e.g., high-risk activities, environmental exposures) and emerging risks (e.g., regulatory changes, climate impacts). This enables data-informed decisions that enhance performance and resilience.
A proactive process used across all project phases to identify potential hazards, assess associated risks, and implement effective control measures before work begins.
A structured and transparent approach for reporting, investigating, analyzing, and responding to incidents—including near misses. Rooted in a no-blame culture, the system ensures accountability, learning, and the implementation of preventive measures that strengthen our safety performance over time.
A standardized program that ensures all sites are ready to respond to a range of emergencies. We conduct regular drills, partner with local responders, and assign clearly defined roles—so that our people are confident and capable in the face of any disruption.
An annual campaign dedicated to raising awareness, deepening engagement, and celebrating shared accountability in SHES. More than just toolbox talks and drills, it features peer-led learning sessions, knowledge-sharing activities, and team challenges that make safety a lived value—on and off the job.
We believe that a healthy and supported workforce is key to operational excellence, which is why we create an environment where people are empowered to thrive both on and off the job.
We believe safety includes mental, emotional, and social well-being. A healthy workforce drives performance, so we create conditions where our people can thrive—on site and off.
We apply structured health safeguards starting from pre-employment, with guidelines on workforce welfare, infectious disease response, and overall site health management.
We run regular wellness programs—from fitness challenges to mental health talks—and provide medical support and services tailored to project and office-based teams.
On-site medical staff, health checks, and hydration support are part of everyday operations, especially for field teams facing physically demanding work.
We follow emergency response protocols and collaborate with experts to promote mental wellness and stress management across our sites and offices.
Our efforts consistently meet industry standards and are validated by client commendations, regulatory compliance, and global certifications.
