Ardmag 'Borrow It' Edition: Oct 2023

Oct 2023

WEEK 3 On Week 3 of CIF Safety Month there will be a PowerPoint presentation distributed to all sites via the SHEQ department. This presentation will be centered around task planning, with one of the focal points being the importance of completing an SPA (pre-planning) correctly. Also, as part of Week 3, we will bring a short First Aid Safety Awareness principles talk with Laura Quigley who is a qualified SRN instructor covering various construction safety related topics. Laura has worked in various healthcare and safety roles with excellent experience in dealing with emergency situations. She teaches how to particularly focus on awareness of your surroundings, and also, prevention. A crucial subject to be familiar with, this is an excellent opportunity to pick up some vital information pertaining to an active site and its dangers. WEEK 4 Upon the closing week of Safety Month, we are delighted to be welcoming Declan Treanor, Health and Wellness Coach and Presenter, who will join us on site to discuss Mental Health and Wellbeing in construction. Declan will be across various Ardmac sites from Monday the 23rd of October to Thursday the 26th of October. A subject of great importance at Ardmac, this initiative follows on from our hugely successful Cycle for Hope just past last month, where we raised over 60k for Pieta. Declan will help teach us all about some techniques to help go about your day in a more positive and upbeat manner. Some areas in which Declan touches on are -

1. How to ask for help and support. 2. How to be more positive and broaden your outlook 3. The distorted internal dialogue and thinking patterns 4. Strategies to improve your mood and energy
