High standards of care are set for managers in relation to their subordinates, and an understanding of human reactions to change is needed.

Many of our people are exposed to a complex array of risks, such as noise, chemicals, ergonomics, much travelling and night work.
Special types of health risk are posed in our international business, which can vary from Arctic conditions to the hazards encountered in tropical areas.

We need to pay close attention to physical, chemical and organisational conditions in the working environment, and have a system for monitoring groups exposed to risk.
