Safety first – At every level of Recover
Safety starts at the top
Safety is a cornerstone of our operations and a clear leadership priority across Recover. From Group level to every local team, we are committed to ensuring that everyone works in a safe and secure environment, every day.
Working safely in high-risk environments
Our teams often operate in physically demanding and high-risk environments. That is why we prioritise health and safety across all countries and business units, supported by structured safety programmes, training, and shared best practices.
A proactive Safety culture
We believe that safety is not just about procedures, it’s about mindset. Our employees are empowered to speak up and stop work if something feels unsafe and we actively promote:
Risk awareness in everyday work
Early identification and prevention of hazards
Open communication and shared responsibility
Preventing incidents before they happen
Proactive and reactive safety
At Recover, we distinguish between reactive and proactive safety: • Reactive: learning from incidents and near misses • Proactive: identifying risks before they occur
Focus on prevention
We place strong emphasis on proactive safety through: • Risk observations and reporting • Continuous dialogue and improvement • Clear safety targets and follow-up
Strong governance
Our Group Safety Committee oversees this work to ensure consistent standards and continuous progress.
Strong and continuous improvement in safety performance
We have achieved significant improvements in recent years through a structured and proactive approach to safety management. We continue to focus on prevention, training and a strong safety culture across all operations. A strong safety performance is essential to delivering reliable and high-quality services to our customers.
