Safety
Safety is foundational to everything we do—from protecting our workforce and the communities we serve to ensuring the integrity of the products we deliver. We operate with a deep respect for the environment, guided by a commitment to continuous improvement and responsible stewardship.
Starting With Safety
Safety is our first core value, and health, safety and environmental (HSE) excellence is foundational to who we are. Our people are our most valuable asset; safety starts with all of us. Our HSE strategy centers on eliminating injuries from serious incidents, keeping the process in containment and aiming to continuously reduce our environmental footprint.
At Phillips 66, we approach safety by integrating Human Performance principles, proactive safety management and a reliability-centered culture.
Our Approach to Safety
Integrating Human Performance Principles
We continue to enhance our safety performance by focusing on the effectiveness of safeguards rather than just outcomes. By leveraging Human Performance (HP) principles, we improve the resilience of our systems, processes and people, thereby safeguarding our workforce, communities and environment. Human Performance involves understanding risks and anticipating mistakes, with effective safeguards in place. By proactively planning work to anticipate errors and integrating safeguards into our systems and processes, our teams collaborate to enhance overall safety and reliability.
Proactive Safety Management
We set rigorous standards and expectations, upheld by our comprehensive HSE management system , which systematically identifies, assesses, and manages risks.
We empower our employees and contractors to “start when sure” and “stop when unsure,” with no repercussions for exercising their stop-work obligation.
Advancing Safety through a Reliability-Centered Culture
At Phillips 66, we believe that reliable operations are fundamental to achieving safe operations, and we emphasize that everyone is responsible for reliability. Many of our asset integrity, process safety and environmental standards often surpass industry requirements.
Managing Process Safety Events
Enhanced reliability and process safety are directly linked. Process safety events are unplanned releases of hazardous material from primary containment. At Phillips 66, we closely monitor and measure our performance in this area in our effort to maintain the highest standards of safety.
To manage process safety events, we seek to apply best practices in design, operations and maintenance. We also perform process hazard analyses and use change-management procedures to mitigate potential risks. By investigating process safety events to uncover their root causes, we can take proactive measures to prevent recurrence and continuously improve our reliability and safety performance.
Safeguarding Our People, Communities and Environment
We are committed to the health and safety of our employees, everyone who works in our facilities and the people who live in the communities where we operate. We strive to create a workplace with effective safeguards in place to prevent injuries, illness and high-consequence events. We take the time to work safely, every job, every day.
Pipeline Safety
We are one of the largest pipeline operators in the U.S., with an industry-leading maintenance program defined by a proactive approach.
Refining in Your Community
We are committed to the health and safety of our employees, everyone who works in our facilities and the people who live in the communities where we operate.
Emergency Response
We have dedicated resources to prepare and implement emergency response plans so that the necessary personnel and equipment are available to respond to emergency scenarios. We routinely prepare, train and drill for emergencies in collaboration with federal, state and local agencies.
Maintaining Strong Safety Performance
We have consistently built a strong foundation for safety performance, reflecting our commitment to continuous improvement and high standards.
