The Group HSE (GHSE) team works with its affiliates to drive the implementation of health, safety, and
environmental initiatives and provide continuous oversight and guidance. The team maintains
corporate HSE standards by reinforcing our agenda of safety for all through compliance audits,
performance tracking, gap analysis, and incident investigations. The Company will pursue these
obligations by enforcing a goal-oriented HSE Management System derived from international
standards and industry best practices. Compliance with HSE standards is a part of our Leadership
Competency Model, used for evaluating our employees.

The key focus during 2022 was on developing Engro Corporation’s HSE standards to institutionalize
minimum requirements that would be enforced across all Engro locations. Second Party audits were
conducted at numerous sites to assess the effectiveness of the HSE Management System and provide
guidance regarding areas of improvement. A large part of GHSE’s efforts was applied to developing
and putting in a new HSE MIS platform – VelocityEHS – to manage HSE work processes better and
enable analytics on the database to identify key areas requiring attention. The platform comprises 4
modules – EHS, ESG, Risk Assessment, and MOC (Management of Change). GHSE also led and/or

our sports
partnerships Engro has always been a proponent of developing talent in all realms of life, on the lookout for
the best of the best. Indeed, we deem it our undeniable responsibility to help solve pressing
issues of our time, and this includes ensuring healthy outlets are available for our youth to
thrive and grow into powerful, positive representatives of Pakistan around the world.

Sports are instrumental in the practical learning of key competencies that are required to
achieve success, including strategic agility, critical-thinking, and problem-solving. At the same
time, they encourage teamwork and physical health. Thus, we have added a new commitment
to Pakistan: for what inspires us, we must strive to support opportunity.

Pakistan needs platforms that offer rising talent a chance to be trained by world-class
coaches, so they can go further, faster, to make their mark on the global stage. With this in
mind, Engro has entered strategic partnerships that enable rising cricket, volleyball, football,
and chess and bridge talent to catapult from the grassroots level to the international playing
field under the Engro Cricket Coaching Project, the Engro Volleyball Development Program,
the Engro Football Training Program, and the Engro Mind Sports Program.
