Lifesaving rules

Safety-Get the basics right

Rule 5
Follow all traffic safety rules
What are the Lifesaving rules?

Following a review of past safety incidents over

the past decade, Saudi Aramco identified that the
majority of fatal incidents were caused by a failure
to comply with eight specific rules. We call these the
Lifesaving Rules.

Why are these rules important?

By focusing on these rules, we will improve our

safety performance while building a solid platform
to make our company safer and more sustainable.

Who do the Livesaving rules apply to?

Everyone – all employees and contractors. These are

more than a set of rules – they are a decade’s worth of
data highlighting the exact areas where improvement is
needed. These rules are in place not only to improve our
safety performance, but to ensure that our people go
home safely to their families every day.
