Taking responsibility for our actions

The behaviour and actions of senior management set the standard for our corporate culture. The Chief Executive is ultimately accountable for our corporate responsibility.

In February 2011, we appointed our first group Chief Operating Officer who is directly responsible for implementing health and safety. In late 2010 we also appointed our first Group Human Resources Director. Together with the Chief Executive they are working to strengthen a working culture focused on health, safety and the environment.

The Group Health, Safety and Environment Committee regularly reviews our corporate responsibility, under the chairmanship of our Senior Independent Non-Executive Director.
