“Make sure you look out for everyone… so that everyone can go home safely.” That’s the advice Jake Newnham, a second year Zinfra Distribution Lineworker apprentice has about managing safety risks. During National Safe Work Month, we’re asking our team members ‘what safety means to them?’ because when it comes to safety first, we are all accountable. Our Field teams have shared the importance of holding each other accountable for: 👷♂️ Always wearing PPE 🖐️ Raising concerns 🤝 Collaborating on solutions 👊 Looking out for each other. At Zinfra, when it comes to safety, it is everyone’s business. Our approach to keeping people safe is guided by our Health and Safety Strategy 2025-2028, learn more here: https://lnkd.in/gT8Z2aDx

At Zinfra, safety comes first! That’s why our annual Safety Field Panel is run each year during National Safe Work Month, to help us better understand the challenges and the risks our teams face. This year our panelist discussed the critical risks they face in their day-to-day work, how they identify them and how to avoid injury or grave damage to our business operation. It was an honest and open panel, with people sharing personal stories of injures either experienced or witnessed and a look at the physical and psychological impact they can have. This was our seventh Field Panel and a sobering reminder that when it comes to safety, it is everyone’s business. We know our field members are best placed to tell us what they need to ensure their workplace is safe and our Field Panel is crucial in understanding and hearing them.
