CHAIRMAN'S MESSAGE
At ABS, we believe there’s a direct correlation between safety and performance and 2023 will be remembered as a year when our safety centric and mission driven strategy, our north star, guided our industry-leading performance. 2023 will also be remembered as the year our industry began its transition to a multidimensional world, where fuels, technology and data unite to provide the hybrid solutions required to achieve net zero.
SAFETY LEADERSHIP FOR A CHANGING WORLD

Christopher J. Wiernicki Chairman and CEO of ABS Chairman of ABS’ Affiliated Companies
In a long safety tradition, each year’s successes form the foundation of the next year’s achievements, fueling the voyage that has made ABS a global Health, Safety, Quality and Environmental (HSQE) leader. The ABS field staff continues to have weekly safety meetings, and office staff meets monthly to discuss specific safety issues locally or cover elements of the safety theme that it develops each year. In 2023, the safety theme was “SafetyPresent,” a program dedicated to mental focus and monitoring changes in behaviors and conditions in the immediate environment, in addition to recognizing how these behaviors and conditions may change over time while completing tasks or migrating to different areas. The primary focus of this program in 2023 was to highlight high-risk hazards and activities faced by ABS personnel.
In 2023, ABS issued 13 Golden Eagle Health and Safety awards to individual employees worldwide dedicated to a proactive health and safety program, and the Chairman’s Safety award was issued to four port offices. This further demonstrates that ABS is a safety-driven organization and is a testament to the safety awareness of its staff, their commitment to safe practices and procedures, and the success of the organization’s overall safety methodology.
