At SECURE, our number one goal is that all employees, contractors and partners [***Go Home Safe***](https://secure.ca/health-and-safety). We are guided by our policies and procedures but act on our choices. Through continuous improvement of our health and safety management system we are endeavouring to achieve Level 5 Safety. This guides our shared values of working safely and is measured by steps demonstrating these values.

SECURE uses a key performance indicators (KPI) model of tracking and controlling all incidents, including near-miss reporting. We knowledge safe practices at all levels, encouraging everyone to remember why they work safely.

### In plain language, here are the 5 Levels of Safety:

- **Level 5** – Safety is at the forefront of our business
- **Level 4** – Safety is engrained in our leadership and values
- **Level 3** – Safety systems build the foundation for the safety program
- **Level 2** – Safety is doing the right thing when incidents happen
- **Level 1** – Safety program meets compliance

The intention of Level 5 Safety is to reach the fifth level by promoting safe behaviours and increasing the proactive measure of employees when it comes to safety.
