Overview of Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE)
Health, Safety, and the Environment (HSE) are important to keep in mind during all aspects of business operations. HSE involves ensuring the health of not only the human life working around hazardous environments, but also the environmental health that could possibly be affected by dangerous oil & gas and chemical operations. Various agencies and organizations have been created to prevent accidents from occuring that could affect HSE, such as the EPA (Enivoronmental Protection Agency) in the United States.
