Health, Safety and Environment Commitment Statement
The executive leadership team, management and employees of TransCanada are committed to being an industry leader in health, safety and environmental practices, to maintaining a safe and healthy workplace and to protecting environmental quality.

We believe excellence in Health, Safety and Environment practices is vital to the well being of all people everywhere and essential to all aspects of our business.

The following principles will guide and measure our corporate goals and objectives in Health, Safety and Environment:


we conduct our business so it meets or exceeds all applicable laws and regulations and minimizes risk to our employees, the public and the environment;


we are committed to continuously improving our Health, Safety and Environment performance;


we will continually promote employee safety on and off the job;


we believe all occupational injuries and illnesses are preventable;


we will respect the diverse environments and cultures in which we operate;


we will endeavour to do business with companies and contractors which share our expectations for Health, Safety and Environment


performance and commitment and we will regularly assess their performance;


we will use our influence with companies in which we have partial ownership so they will want to meet the Health, Safety and Environment Commitment of TransCanada, and


we support open communication between TransCanada, the public, the scientific community and policy makers and public interest groups who research, develop and implement standards for health, safety and environmental protection.
At TransCanada, we believe all employees are responsible and accountable for Health, Safety and Environment performance.
