Trainning is very important

Our amazing team ensures proper practices with a kickoff before each project, emphasizing the importance of safety from the start. Here’s what we focus on to set the standard: 1. **Safety Goals and Objectives**: We begin each meeting by setting clear safety goals for the project, ensuring every team member understands and commits to high safety standards. 2. **Tool and Equipment Checks**: We conduct rigorous inspections of all tools and equipment to verify they are in optimal condition and safe for use, reducing the risk of accidents. 3. **Emergency Procedures Review**: Familiarity with emergency protocols is crucial. We review evacuation routes, first aid procedures, and emergency contacts to prepare everyone for potential incidents. 4. **Open Discussion**: Providing a platform for team members to express any safety concerns or suggestions fosters a proactive approach to identifying and mitigating risks. 5. **Commitment to Safety**: Each meeting concludes with a collective commitment to uphold safety standards, reinforcing the shared responsibility for a safe work environment. By concentrating on these key areas, we maintain a secure and efficient work site for every project at CTI Environmental. Safety isn't just a protocol—it's our priority! #CTIEnvironmental #SafetyFirst #WorkplaceSafety #ConstructionSafety #TeamSafety

Today, during my SA001 course on overhead safety, I learned a valuable lesson about the importance of following safety procedures when working from heights. Let me share a fictional story about a guy named Paul who didn't prioritise safety and how it impacted his life and those around him. Paul was a confident and experienced worker who believed accidents only happen to others. One day, he decided to take a shortcut and ignore the safety harness while working on a telecommunication pole. Unfortunately, his overconfidence led to a devastating fall. The consequences were severe, not just for Paul but for his family, friends, and colleagues. The accident left Paul with life-altering injuries, affecting his ability to work and enjoy everyday activities. His loved ones were emotionally and financially burdened, struggling to cope with the aftermath of the incident. This tragic event could have been prevented if Paul had followed proper safety protocols. So, why do people sometimes ignore safety procedures? One common reason is the belief that 'it would never happen to me.' Overconfidence and a lack of awareness can cloud judgment and lead to risky behavior. It's crucial to remember that accidents can happen to anyone, regardless of experience or confidence. To ensure our safety and return home to our loved ones every day, we must prioritise safety at all times. Here are a few key steps we can take: 1. Education and Training: Regularly participate in safety courses and stay updated on best practices for working from heights. 2. Risk Assessment: Evaluate the risks associated with each task and identify appropriate safety measures to mitigate them. 3. Use Proper Safety Equipment: Always wear the necessary protective gear, including harnesses, helmets, and safety boots. 4. Communication and Awareness: Foster a culture of open communication and encourage everyone to speak up if they notice unsafe practices. 5. Lead by Example: Set a positive example for others by consistently following safety procedures and encouraging others to do the same. Remember, safety is not just a priority, it's a mindset. Let's work together to ensure a safe working environment for ourselves and our colleagues. By doing so, we can protect our well-being and enjoy the precious moments with our loved ones. #SafetyFirst #WorkplaceSafety"

A ship needs a watertight hull and reliable navigation systems BEFORE setting sail, just as… A company MUST prioritise legal compliance and effective proven safety measures before embarking on other initiatives. As a safety professional, I've grown increasingly concerned about companies that neglect legal compliance and fail to implement robust safety systems and procedures. I’m sure you will agree that when we read about industrial accidents across all industries: It’s usually neglect of the most BASIC safety measures such as: ▶️ Comprehensive risk assessments ▶️ Robust safety policies and procedures ▶️ Regular safety training and awareness ▶️ Proper use of PPE ▶️ Machine guarding & LOTO procedures ▶️ Regular equipment maintenance and inspections ▶️ Clear communication and reporting channels for safety concerns ▶️ Incident investigation and root cause analysis ▶️ Emergency response plans and drills ▶️ Continuous improvement through safety audits and reviews That led to harm and had significant repercussions for the organisations involved. It's absolutely crucial for organisations to prioritise and fully resource BASIC fundamental aspects before engaging with other topics, no matter how timely or ideologically compelling or society driven they may seem. Some of the "New Safety Paradigms" (NSPs) and even issues like mental health and psychological safety may fall into this category. While these topics are undoubtedly important, they should NOT take precedence over the fundamental aspects of workplace safety. ▶️ Weak legal compliance and inadequate safety measures can lead to devastating consequences, including serious injuries and fatalities (SIF) Complying with the law is a moral necessity and obligation - we owe it to those who have and may be killed and their loved ones not to neglect the basics being. By diverting resources and attention away from core issues, companies may place their employees' lives at risk. Remember, safeguarding the well-being of our workforce should always be our top priority. Let's focus on strengthening our legal compliance, developing comprehensive safety systems, and fostering a culture of safety throughout our organisations. ▶️ Only then can we create a SOLID foundation upon which to build and address other matters What are your thoughts on this critical issue? How can we ensure that companies prioritise safety and compliance above all else? #WorkplaceSafety #SafetyFirst #LegalCompliance #SafetySystems #RiskManagement #SIF #EmployeeWellbeing #SafetyPriority #UKSafety #SafetyMatters# #Safetyprofessionals

EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED Life is never a smooth flowing journey, so are our processes and plants. We can have a health and robust safety management system, but in one way or the other, incidents might occur. Having an emergency response procedure is not enough but a well informed and competent team to handle such incidents when they occur cannot be overemphasized. You can have the fire-fighting equipment in place but your team doesn’t know how to use it or when/where to use them is the same as having none at all. Investing in team training, drills, emergency response procedures helps in preparation for such uncertainties during operation thereby safeguarding life, equipment and saving costs. #emergencyresponse #thinksafety #besafealways
