HSEM Strategy Plan 2020

Executive summary
Standards for the prevention of incidents in TC Energy are governed by growth, a strong safety culture, safety policies,
accepted industry safety practices, customer specific safety requirements and health and safety legislation. In order to
ensure compliance to the previously mentioned points, TC Energy has developed a Health and Safety strategy which it
believes will meet or exceed the applicable standards.

Deterioration of the Company's safety performance could result in an increase of Injuries and Illness and could have a
material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, cash flow and operational results.

Safety participation
Awareness of our Hazard Identification program (SHARE´s) accelerated from 2018 after employees received workforce
engagement training (Alkoomi) and resulted in a further reduction in injury rates and increased safety participation.

Recognition
Last year it was introduced a new tool for recognize hazards called “energy wheel”, this tool it was included into Job
Safety Analysis process in order to improve hazard recognition and keep a proper hazard situational awareness.

Strategy toward safety culture


There is a relation between incidents reduction and increasing of participation through hazard identification reports and
an improved in JSA elaboration quality.

Next actions are developed to keep and improve our safety standards and reach corporate safety targets by this year.
