Driver safety programmes

Each year, Shell employees and contractors drive 1.9 billion kilometres on company business, the equivalent of travelling around the equator 130 times a day. Our efforts to improve road safety are starting to show results in some of the world’s most dangerous places to drive. Shell Oil Products Africa’s “Drive to Live Campaign” spread from Kenya to Ethiopia, Ghana, Morocco and South Africa last year. Although overall road fatalities in our upstream business rose in 2006, there were some clear successes. On Russia’s Sakhalin Island, the Sakhalin Energy joint venture’s seat belt programme has reduced staff and contractor road fatalities from four in 2004 to zero in 2006. It has been rolled out across the Island to benefit local communities.
