[A]

In line with industry standards, we distinguish three contract modes. Mode 1: contractor/supplier performs work under Shell’s HSSE Management System (HSSE MS); Mode 2: contractor/supplier performs work under its own HSSE MS, which is materially equivalent to Shell’s HSSE MS; Mode 3: contractor/supplier performs work under its own HSSE MS. Also in line with industry standards, we report on safety performance only for contract modes 1 and 2.

[B]

Includes fatal occupational injuries and illnesses except for those related to COVID-19. There were 2 COVID-19-related occupational illnesses in 2020 that resulted in death (0 employees, 2 contractors)

[C]

We have updated some of our historical figures following a review of the data.

[D]

Severe motor vehicle incident is defined as a motor vehicle incident resulting in a fatality, serious injury or a rollover of a vehicle.

[E]

Process safety events classified according to guidance from the IOGP and API. In 2020, there was one Tier 1 sabotage-related event. The classification of sabotage-related process safety events is made on the best-endeavours basis.
