CONSTRUCTION EMPLOYERS FEDERATION THE VOICE OF THE INDUSTRY

Time to re-energise your site safety CEF #SAFETYREBOOT2026 IS BACK TO KICKSTART THE YEAR AND RE-ENGAGE STAFF IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE CHRISTMAS BREAK…

DATES FOR THE DIARY

CEF’s annual health and safety initiative, Safety Reboot, is back to kickstart the year in January 2026. This vital industry-wide initiative encourages everyone in the construction industry to dedicate approximately 15 minutes, once a week throughout January, to refocus on key H&S priorities. Centrally-provided Safety Reboot resources offer a timely refresher on critical risks to re- engage staff and prepare them for the year ahead. The CEF Health and Safety Committee has structured the stoppages around focused weekly themes to ensure maximum impact during January. Topics include: week one - Site Re-induction; week two - Working at Height; week three - Mental Health and Wellbeing; and week four - Your Company: You Choose, giving companies the important opportunity to select one of the remaining topics that is most relevant to their specific business needs. The 11 core topics will remain, as the Health and Safety Committee consider these the most significant areas of

focus for the industry. For easy access to the resources, all will be shared on the CEF website and supported by QR codes to enable instant access on site. There will also be additional eye-catching posters to keep #SafetyReboot2026 visible across your sites all through January. Huge thanks go to the CEF Health and Safety Committee, who have reviewed and refreshed the resources to ensure they remain current and reflect best practice. Jonathan Caughey, Federation Manager at the CEF, said, “We are really excited that the industry will be again joining us by getting involved in #SafetyReboot2026. Health and safety is such an important part of every day on construction sites across NI. Safety Reboot gives the industry the opportunity to demonstrate its commitment by reminding staff and the wider supply chain of the key messages to keep themselves and their colleagues safe and healthy. Use the resources provided and don’t forget to share how you get involved across social media using the hashtag #SafetyReboot2026.”
