Making HSE performance a key indicator of organizational excellence by integrating HSE into the company's business processes, thereby sustaining growth, complying with social obligations, protecting human life, and the environment.
StrategyOur strategy aims to reduce work related incidents with specific emphasis on safe company operations at all the geographies we are working in. We believe in taking proactive measures to prevent people from health, safety, and environmental risks.
At Descon, we prioritize the health, safety, and environmental (HSE) practices that go beyond mere compliance. We strive for continuous improvement by fostering leadership commitment, implementing robust HSE management systems, and encouraging the dedication of our workforce.
Safety is at the core of our operations, and we have integrated a comprehensive range of programs into our operational management systems. Our HSE management system serves as a centralized framework, ensuring the consistent implementation of HSE standards across all company operations in accordance with the requirements of ISO 45001 and ISO 14001.
To strengthen our safety culture, we have appointed a Chief HSE Officer (CHSEO) who oversees HSE practices. Additionally, regular HSE Steering Committee Meetings, attended by senior management including the CEO are conducted to address safety concerns, promote health initiatives, and cultivate a strong HSE culture.

WaysTo streamline our HSE operations, we have implemented a SAS-based customized software called ProAACT. This software enables us to record and manage all HSE data and events efficiently. Audits and associated action items are seamlessly handled through the system, enhancing the overall effectiveness of our HSE practices.
Furthermore, our mobile application, integrated with the main HSE database, empowers our employees to promptly report safety observations, near misses, and incidents. The application sends notifications to the leadership, alerting them based on the severity level of the reported incidents. This real-time reporting system enables swift response and proactive measures to ensure a safe working environment.
