H&S Focus - Battling Complacency

Complacency is possibly themost serious hazard that faces our workforce on a daily basis. Recognising this, our teamhave beenworking on ways to battle complacency on site ensuring that operatives are staying focused and maintaining high standards of safety at all times.

Here are some of the ways that we are attempting to tackle this;

5 point safety checklist cards are a daily reminder to operatives of what they need to do before starting work safely.

Daily debrief with operatives and Safety observation reports (SOR) for our work- force to raise any issues or safety hazards on site.

H&S Operative engagement walks – a time for our safety managers to speak with workers on site and raise concerns as well as reviewing safety practice.

Training Workshops

Training is a key element to ensuring that a high standard of safety is maintained on all our sites. Regular training workshops on topics such as manual handling, use of dust masks and working at height being held on site have been hugely successful in creating awareness and providing operatives with the knowledge to carry out all their works in a safe manner.
