Our Policy:
This policy outlines how we manage Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) risks and opportunities in line with our corporate values. At CPFL, we believe that effective HSE management is everyone’s responsibility. Our approach is proactive, aiming to anticipate and mitigate risks before they become issues. We are all accountable for ensuring our operations are conducted in a manner that protects our employees, the environment, and the broader community.
We commit to:
Providing Expert Guidance: Ensuring that all areas of our operations have access to professional HSE expertise. This support is crucial in assisting our leadership teams with the day-to-day management of HSE responsibilities and ensuring compliance with best practices.
Upholding High Standards: Setting and maintaining rigorous health and safety standards across all our operations. We believe in leading by example, creating a culture where safety is prioritized at every level.
Clear Objectives and Targets: Establishing HSE objectives and targets that are ambitious yet achievable. We implement comprehensive programs designed to meet these targets, regularly reviewing and adjusting them as necessary to drive continuous improvement.
Proactive Risk Management: Conducting regular assessments to identify significant HSE risks and implementing robust control measures to mitigate them. Our focus is on preventing injuries, minimizing work-related ill health, and reducing environmental impacts.
Incident Reporting and Learning: Maintaining effective systems for reporting and investigating accidents, near misses, environmental incidents, and work-related ill health. These systems are designed not only to address incidents but also to learn from them, ensuring that corrective and preventive actions are taken promptly and effectively.
Comprehensive Training and Induction: Providing ongoing training and induction programs to enhance the HSE knowledge and skills of our workforce. We aim to empower every employee with the tools and understanding necessary to perform their roles safely and effectively.

Community and Stakeholder Engagement: Maintaining open communication with local communities and participating in local authority initiatives. We believe in being a responsible corporate citizen, actively contributing to the well-being of the areas where we operate.
Emergency Preparedness: Developing and regularly testing comprehensive emergency response plans. We ensure that all employees are trained in these procedures, so they are prepared to act swiftly and effectively in the event of an emergency.
