The ultimate goal of HSE with three issues of health, safety and environment, which have mutual effects on each other, is to preserve human health and life. If we value our health and that of our employees, then we will try to maintain the healthy life of people as much as possible by observing the principles and rules related to occupational health, safety and environment and training and culturalization of these matters in the workplace.
