"At Cenovus, safety is a core value and we operate according to a set of strong values promoting excellence in health and safety performance. We strive to find ways to get better, every day."
Cenovus staff members nominate companies and winners are chosen by a selection committee appointed by the Cenovus Operations Health & Safety team. The selection committee looks for evidence that the contractor has demonstrated leadership by finding innovative ways to promote safety in the workplace, working collaboratively to integrate safety into the planning process, and placing a high personal value on safety.
"The Cenovus Safety Stewardship Award is just one way Cenovus shows our appreciation for a commitment to safety," said Greeves. "Cenovus puts a lot of emphasis on ensuring the work we do is done in a safe and responsible way, and when we have the opportunity to work with companies that share the same values, we can achieve great things."
