The primary objective of the EHS audit was to assess whether operations and activities at the facility were i) in compliance with Vietnam’s HSE regulatory requirements and the clients corporate best practice standards, and where non-compliances were identified, to ii) recommend corrective actions along with the associated costings, timeframes and assignment of responsibilities to rectify the non conformance.

The audit lasted three days and comprised of a visitor orientation and H&S Inductions for SLP staff followed by the opening meeting and introductions. The EHS management team provided SLP auditors with a brief facility presentation summarizing the facility operations, EHS programs and known issues or opportunities for strengthening the facility’s environmental, health and safety performance. This was followed by an orientation tour of the facility to help SLPs auditors become familiar with the layout of the facility and to identify areas of the facility which required further detailed examination.

Based on the findings of the walkthrough additional targeted inspections of internal and external areas of the facility were conducted and interviews held with representatives of the EHS Management Team.
