Safety is a Shared Responsibility!

Safety requires a Team Effort to Get to ZERO so we expect input from each of you.

We are all responsible for safety. You are not only responsible for your safety but that of your co-workers as well. Each employee is expected to actively promote the safety program. Safety is not a spectator sport…so get in the game!

Management – Shall manage EHS programs and procedures and provide the resources needed for employees to achieve safety success including:

• Providing Leadership
• Developing Policies and procedures
• Outlining Clearly Defined Goals
• Communicating compliance expectations
• Maintaining/improving working conditions
• Providing Safety Training
• Offering Support
• Facilitating EHS Committee Meetings
• Providing PPE
• Offering Incentives when results are achieved

Supervisors – Are expected to Lead from the Front! Supervisors drive the safety program and are responsible for enforcing policies and procedures. They must also:

• Inspect work areas and working conditions
• Observe worker behavior and activities
• Ensure equipment and pre-job checks are performed
• Correct housekeeping issues
• Make decisions in the field
• Promote safety
• Communicate with and listen to subordinates
• Motivate workers
• Ensure safety rules are followed
• Set priorities

Employees – Shall use the resources provided to accomplish their jobs safely. Think Safe Production. The employee’s role is to:

• Take ownership of the safety program

• Look for, recognize and report hazards, accidents, injuries and near misses
• Assist with developing and reviewing JSAs
• Make safety observations
• Submit safety suggestions
• Participate in the EHS committee
• Buy in to the safety culture
• Actively participate in safety training
• Perform inspections of work area and equipment
• Follow established compliance policies and procedures
• Practice good housekeeping

Keep Your Mind and Eyes on Task. Even if you're performing your job safely and avoiding hazards, there is often a better or safer way to complete the task. Think about what you are doing and if you have ideas for improving the safety of your job, Share Them!

Zero Injuries is an attainable Goal! – Let's keep communicating and continue to improve safety. ASK whenever you are unsure about something!

You have the right to make a difference: If you see a safety deficiency or unsafe act, Stand Up and Speak Out for Safety. You may be the only one who caught it.

The Goal is 100%

100% Participation

100% Compliance

100% Commitment

Why 10,000%? Because 99% just isn’t good enough and here are a few examples:

If a gas meter used to measure the air prior to entry into a confined space is calibrated and operated properly only 99 percent of the time could still result in a worker fatality upon the 100th entry. Every 103 minutes someone dies on the job as a result of a traumatic injury! That worker could be you or a co-worker!

If U.S. airports accepted a 99% error-free performance rate approximately 466,750 takeoffs and landings of commercial airplanes could end in tragedy, annually. The end result could be multiple deaths - Every 5 seconds somebody is disabled in a non-occupational incident and a non-work related fatality occurs every 19 minutes!

Any safety trainer who teaches employees how to utilize fall protection equipment and other PPE correctly 99% of the time jeopardizes 15-20 workers on a large construction crew. Every 8 second a worker suffers a disabling injury, every 8 seconds!

Think Safety - 24/7!
