  15:40 - 16:20 TARGET ZERO: Saipem's journey to ZERO fatalities: Our strategy to face the storm of change
  Saipem operates within an industry characterised by constant changes, fluctuations and market evolutions. Yet in this challenging context, Saipem finally achieved its target of zero fatal accidents in 2021. An extraordinary result that did not occur through luck or chance. It happened thanks to a transformation process which started 15 years ago, in the relentless pursuit to building a positive and lasting health and safety culture, by multiplying effective safety leadership. The foundation of this process is the Leadership in Health and Safety programme, which has equipped leaders with the moral compass and a positive mindset to become mature safety leaders, capable of managing the waves of change, influencing behaviours and, above all, constantly maintaining a strong safety focus.
