Overview

Orica employs more than 15,000 people with operations in over 50 different countries and servicing customers in more than twice that number.

We are committed to valuing people and the environment achieving no injuries to anyone - ever. Our SH&E Policy states that we will:

• strive to ensure our facilities operate to the highest standards to protect our employees, contractors, neighbours and the environment;
• require every employee and contractor working for us to comply with relevant legislation and with this policy and we will provide them with the necessary training; and
• encourage employee initiatives that contribute to a safer and improved environment at work, at home and in the community.

Our Culture

Much of our growth has come from geographic expansion spanning cultural, language and workplace relations diversity. Having a strong culture within the organisation is critical to ensuring that we all share a common approach to the way we do business. The four ‘Deliver the Promise’ principles that support our performance based culture and against which our performance is measured, revolve around:

• Safety, Health and Environment;
•  Commercial Ownership;
• Creative Customer Solutions; and
• Working Together.

Our culture empowers and motivates Orica’s people to achieve long-term, sustainable results.
