The Life Saving Rules: Promoting Working Safely

Safeguarding Lives,
Every Working Day

Nothing is more important than the safety of our team members and everyone who works alongside us.

GE Vernova’s Life Saving Rules are our instructions and critical controls for fatality-free operations. They are central to the safety of our team members and those who work alongside us. They are our commitment to ensuring everyone working for us, or on our behalf, goes home safely at the end of the day.

As a company leading the energy transition, we believe we have a responsibility to promote safe working across the energy sector. As a result, our Life Saving Rules are freely available to download or share for anyone involved in or managing staff undertaking high-risk operations.

“Safety is the foundation of everything we do at GE Vernova. By making our Life Saving Rules public, we’re inviting others to join us in building a safer, stronger industry for everyone.”

At GE Vernova, safety is a shared commitment. By offering these Life Saving Rules to the public, we are helping the industry implement stronger safety protocols and protect lives.

And we’re not stopping there. These principles extend beyond energy, delivering value to high-risk industries everywhere.

THE LIFE SAVING RULES

Our Life Saving Rules are free to download as posters and digital images that can be printed and display in your workplace.

We recommend displaying the Life Saving Rules in prominent locations frequently visited by staff working in high-risk operations, such as breakrooms, conference rooms, and reception areas. The Rules can be shared in team meetings, as handouts, or added to emails and intranets. There are no restrictions on their use.

Pocket-sized work cards are also available for printing, offering a convenient, portable way for employees to keep the Rules on hand at all times.
