4. We need to look out for our own staff and our contractor colleagues
This year - don’t become another statistic
Focus on the task in hand and the environment you are working in
Operate within the bounds of your training, experience and follow procedures
Report/address hazards
If in doubt, stop and ask
If it’s not safe, we don’t do it
During 2017/18 Generation & Gas Storage staff and contractors have worked professionally to ensure our business and customer needs are being met on a daily basis and in doing so over 99% of people arrived home safely at the end of each day.
However, during this same period 15 people were injured in Generation & Gas Storage so please reflect on the following:
Are you concentrating on the things that might hurt you, i.e. are your focusing on the task in hand and the environment you are working in?
Are you continuing to complete 20 second scans or POWRAs to check for anything that might hurt you, and are you taking immediate corrective action? Remove/control the hazard = remove the risk
Are you operating within the bounds of your training and experience and do you know and follow the correct procedures?
Are you continuing to use your license to help ensure that you and your colleagues go home safe? If it’s not safe, we don’t do it.
Are you continuing to protect yourself and your colleagues by proactively managing the risk of possible complacency?
Its important for us to refocus on looking after ourselves as well as our contractors who are still receiving most injuries in Generation & Gas Storage.
As we head into 2018/19 please ask yourselves and your teams –
Are we being restless?
Is our current performance something which you are willing to accept?
What can you do differently to deliver a step-change in our performance?
