 All Shell-operated companies worldwide must adhere to the Group HSE Policy and Procedure. Our health and environmental expectations set minimum standards worldwide, which form the platform for further improvement. All of our operations are required to have certifiable HSE management systems in place and over 95% of major installations have had the environmental element of these systems externally certified to international standards, such as ISO14001 and EMAS. We must, like every organisation, protect our employees and safeguard shareholders' investments. We expect forces of law and order to give us appropriate protection in line with international law enforcement standards. Where this is inadequate, managers may seek authority, or be required by law, to employ security personnel.
