Previous Shell Health, Safety, Safety, Security and Environment Standards With the launch of the Shell Health, Safety, Security and Environment (HSSE) & Social Performance (SP) Control Framework* in 2009, we simplified and clarified our environmental and social requirements. Previously our HSSE standards contained detailed requirements. We now have a simplified set of standards that define high level principles and expectations for how we operate. A set of mandatory manuals includes more detailed requirements to help our staff put our standards into practice. The manuals contain all of the HSSE and SP requirements we have followed in the past, such as our industry-first biodiversity standard. The following HSSE standards have been replaced with manuals from our HSSE & SP Control Framework: Previous standard Animal testing standard Asset integrity process safety standards Global environmental standards
