- Green Hats require a four-week familiarization without assessment.
Responsibilities and Accountability
- Managers ensure all SSEs are integrated and mentored properly.
- Supervisors supervise SSEs, track their progress, and ensure safety compliance.
- Mentors support SSEs through training and provide feedback.
Training and Assessment
- Mandatory HSE training required for SSEs as per ADNOC guidelines.
- Ongoing training assessments must be scheduled, especially during job changes or exposure to new hazards.
- Failure to meet assessment standards necessitates re-training.
