Risk Prevention and Mitigation
Strategic "Stop Card" & Culture Focus
TotalEnergies places a massive focus on the Human Element, recognizing that technology alone cannot prevent all accidents.
The Stop Card
Every employee and contractor has the "Stop Card" focus—the absolute authority to halt any operation (on the road or at sea) if they perceive a safety risk.
Shared Vigilance
Strengthening ties between management and local contractors to ensure that safety standards are harmonized across the entire supply chain.
Technological Risk Management
A specific focus on identifying "downgraded situations" (where a safety barrier is partially failing) and reporting them immediately before they lead to an incident.
