Quality, Health, Safety & Environment

Our Commitment to Quality, Health,
Safety & Environment (QHSE)

At AEML we are committed to achieving engineering excellence – that includes achieving the highest levels of health and safety for our customers, contracting partners, employees and the communities in which we operate. We promote the highest standards in health, safety, and environmental preservation and protection by establishing, implementing and maintaining an HSE Management System that includes targets and standards for HSE Performance, HSE Educational and motivational incentives, and assessments and accountability for achievement of those targets and standards.

Quality Control

Quality control is the key focus throughout all stages of our operations. We strive continually to improve on our already high standards, to further embed quality in our teams’ mind-set and the company’s DNA.

Occupational Health & Safety

The management of Occupational Health & Safety is at the heart of everything we do – it’s embedded within us to operate in a way that minimises the risk of injury to our people, or people we work with.

Our projects and operations have been running smoothly without any major safety incident at any of our operations sites and offices, fabrication sites, warehouses and workshops.

Environment

Our impact on the environment and the size of our operational carbon footprint is something we’re always trying to reduce. We make it our job to undertake assessments of all of our business activities so as to minimize as many adverse effects on the environment as possible. Through effective environmental management systems we ensure regulatory compliance that includes continual review of legal and other requirements, and the subsequent development of systems and controls across our business.

Standards & Regulatory Compliance

Our culture of quality is backed by stringent adherence to international regulations. ACADIAN fabricates, assembles and tests in accordance with all of the applicable internationally recognized codes and standards including ASME, API, GPSA, CWB and AWS. Additionally, ACADIAN’s quality system is monitored and certified ISO 9001:2015.

To meet this commitment, ACADIAN abides by the following principles:

  • Provide equipment that meets the highest standards for safety and operation while placing the minimum burden on the environment.
  • Place the highest priority on the health and safety of personnel and on the preservation and protection of the environment.
  • Plan and perform work in accordance with the HSE Management System.
  • Hold employees, including those of vendors and subcontractors, responsible for their own HSE and that of their colleagues.
  • Ensure that all personnel are trained in HSE.
  • Review, monitor and measure HSE performance for continual improvement.
  • Provide full cooperation to clients, statutory authorities and local communities.
  • Comply with and maintain certification with the relevant statutory authorities including Worksafe New Brunswick, New Brunswick Construction Safety Association (NBCSA), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and any authorities in the jurisdictions where our equipment is being installed.
