Putting people's safety and care first – always.
Appropriate health, safety and environment management is central to Emarat operations across all departments, from staff at our corporate headquarters to our service station attendants. Taking care of the people we employ directly or as contractors is critical to our success in delivering exceptional standards of customer service. Providing a safe and healthy workplace with quality environmental management is of paramount importance to Emarat
Our corporation operates on policies, processes, procedures and technical systems that help us to identify HSE hazards and control risks to keep our employees, and anybody who might come into contact with our activities, safe and healthy.
Across the spectrum of our activities, the Emarat Maximo online Incident Management System provides a comprehensive incident reporting, investigation and management protocol, with KPI report generation, risk assessment models and the ability to manage and respond to potential hazards in real time, wherever they may occur within our activity spectrum.
Emarat operates in compliance with National Health, Safety and Environment Legislations, Regulations, and Codes of Practice in line with international best practices and standards, such as ISO 45001:2018 Health and Safety Management Systems and ISO 14001:2015 Environment Management Systems, across all our activities.
From the forecourt and Car Wash attendants, staff at the cashier’s counter at Freshplus to our Board of Directors, the safety and well-being of everybody working within the Emarat ecosystem is always our highest priority.

This aims to help the corporation dispose of paper waste in a sound way, rather than burning or burying such papers and negatively affecting the environment.
In a proactive step that aims to decrease the rate of pollution created by the use of plastic bags, Emarat uses only environmentally friendly plastic bags that naturally decompose over a short period of time.
