Genesis

Athena HESS Consultants Private Limited (Athena) was incorporated in Singapore in June 2004.

The primary object of its incorporation is to provide consultancy and specialist professional services to manage industrial Health, Environmental, Safety and Security (HESS) risks in the Oil & Gas and Petrochemical Industry.

Our Philosophy & Credo

Our guiding philosophy is founded on the principles of supporting industries to achieve a commensurate level of Health & Safety knowledge and competencies among Management and Workforce alike. This will pave the way for an organisational climate that is receptive and appreciative of the intrinsic value of Health & Safety. The organisation then becomes a fertile ground for the evolution of a Culture of Health & Safety.
An organisation that is steeped in the Culture of Health & Safety is far more successful in implementing and maintaining H&S programmes and safeguards that are essential for addressing its operational risks. More specifically in the context of Emergency Preparedness, organisations with sound health and safety mindset attain higher levels of preparedness, and are able to effectively mitigate all credible emergencies.
