So [INAUDIBLE] environment I mentioned earlier, or [INAUDIBLE] policies and
procedures, that's really the walk.
That’s what we're trying to deliver.
A systematic process to try to help us identify the risk,
identify the best way to control that risk.
A means to measure how engaged we are in the process.
But how do we deploy those programs, and how do we manage and
continually improve those programs?
That's our Safety Health and Environment Management System or SHEMS program.
That was an eyesore USAS certified program based on the Deming cycle,
where we continually improve through the plan, do, check, act, process.
So again driven by the IFE culture, we use the SHEMS to deploy and
manage and measure and the ultimate goal is to protect workers,
protect their clients, protect the company brand name and
protect the environment through the plan to check,
act, containment proven process.
That's how we believe we're gonna get the safety excellence in the future.
So let's have a look at some of the factors when we have situations or
incidents or when people get hurt on our projects.
We can split it up when we look at job factors.
We look at organizational factors and look at conditions and systems and processes.
So, ultimately, we focus 80% our time on the systems
processes and the systems the analytics the data.
When we really have done to analyze an actual injury,
the root cause really come down to human decisions.
So it's a culture and the people's decisions that are the key factors and
having negative results.
So the human factors are really the area that we need to be more focused on.
The engagement and the process, the core value behind the system and process.
So we need to realign our approach in general and
we need to move away from an industry wide focus on lagging indicators.
I mentioned earlier, but injuries, or
incidents that fall in certain buckets that are described by OSHA but really
ultimately the near miss is only one inch or one second away from being a fatality.
So we get too wrapped up ad trying to be measured on log indicator rates and
we really need to move towards leading indicators.
Really measuring visible leadership, measuring engagements and
systems and processes.
We need to really focus on the the core competency of our work force at
management level right down throw to the front line.
