In 2003, the International Labor Organization (ILO), began to observe World Day for Safety and Health at Work in order to stress on the prevention of accidents and diseases at work.

QAFCO has implemented several key measures to ensure employee and workplace safety, thereby being certified for Occupational Health & Safety Assessment Service (OHSAS) 18001:2007 Standard and Responsible Care. Some of the admirable initiatives implemented include Behavior-Based Safety programs, Contractor Safety Awards and Safety and Environment Forums.
