Recognizing the critical importance of safety in operations, Submar, LLC has instituted a comprehensive Stop Work Authority (SWA) program. This initiative empowers every employee with the unequivocal authority and obligation to halt any task or operation where uncertainties regarding health, safety, and environmental (HSE) controls exist. By embedding this responsibility across all levels, Submar aims to cultivate a culture where safety is paramount, and proactive intervention is standard practice.

The successful implementation of Submar’s SWA program hinges on the active participation and collaboration of all personnel. Employees are encouraged to promptly initiate stop work interventions upon identifying unsafe conditions, while supervisors and management are tasked with fostering an environment that supports such actions. By adhering to the SWA procedures—immediate cessation of work, notification of all affected parties, thorough investigation, corrective action, and resumption only after issues are resolved—Submar ensures that safety remains the cornerstone of its operations. This collective commitment not only safeguards the well-being of all employees but also enhances the overall integrity and reliability of Submar’s services.
