Creating a Safety Culture in Alexandria, Egypt
Health, Safety & Environment (HS&E) training was delivered to all of our employees in FY2015, focusing on how to increase the involvement and accountability of managers, supervisors and employees to foster a safer working environment.
After the training, the management group in our facility in Alexandria decided to impart what they had learned to their contracted workforce.
As a result, the facility has experienced a reduction in both the frequency and severity of near misses and injuries, increased employee engagement, improved job planning and integrated risk assessments into daily activities. The training has increased responsibility in the facility, with both the employed and contracted workforces putting more effort into looking after each other, and taking a crucial step towards a culture of safety excellence.
