Ensuring safety

Repsol will promote and require the principles and commitments set forth in this policy to its employees and, as far as possible, to its contractors, partners, and collaborators. Regardless of position or geographic location, all employees and contractors are responsible for their own safety and health, as well as for contributing to health and safety, at both the individual and collective levels.

If there is a conflict between safety and health and operating profit, all employees and contractors are responsible for choosing safety and Management will always support this decision.

This policy was approved by Repsol’s Executive Committee on November 22, 2022.
