Safety Performance

Core Laboratories is committed and accountable for promoting a culture centric on the health and safety of our employees and the environment. We are pro-active towards identifying and managing risks through recognition, evaluation, and education. We empower our employees by fostering a sense of responsibility for managing their own work environment through open communication, and a management supported zero-accident culture.

In 2020, Core Lab recorded one of its best safety records ever with a TRIR of 0.28 and LTIR of .05. Year over year lost time accidents were down 50% - a major accomplishment by Core Lab employees globally.

Safety Goals: Path to Zero

Core Lab will establish goals and targets based on 3-year averages. It is our view that sustainability of our safety program must be measured over longer periods of time and that high performance safety cultures display solid downward trends over time.

Trends for both LTIR and TRIR have showed movement towards growing sustainable safety cultures within all business units. Core Lab firmly believes trending of 3-year averages best shows the sustainability of the safety program over time by removing the short term peaks and valleys. This provides a more stable and measurable TRIR or LTIR, avoiding safety expectations on performance based on just one good or bad year. Core Lab goals are set with the expectation of driving down these averages in 2020.

Most Importantly

Core Lab recorded another year without a fatality. The number one goal of Core Laboratories is to prevent all incidents, but especially those with significant impact to the environment, our employees, and their families.
