Safety Moment
• Corrective Actions
• Reinforce that production will not supersede safety process and procedure
• Implement Excavation Permitting System
• Carry out Take 5 Training
• Implement RCR Performance and Behavior Model on relevant employees
Project delivery actions
• Water Corporation is taking steps to ensure the project delivery process has multiple checkpoints for asbestos identification and management on construction sites.
• Safety in design and project management processes have been modified to explicitly reference the Asbestos Asset Registers.
• The standard ‘Special Conditions of Contract’ and HSE Handbook for Contractors has been updated to include specifications for the identification and management of asbestos post possession of site.
Leadership matters
“The quality of safety management by operators is fundamental to safety. No
amount of detailed regulations (or paperwork) can make up for the way safety
is managed.”
Leadership matters
A safety culture starts with leadership. Leadership drives culture. Culture drives behaviour.
Leadership matters
Leaders set the tone and direction of “What’s Important” through visible leadership. The visible actions and behaviours of leaders resonate longer and louder than words.
Leadership matters
Consistent safety leadership comes from organisations that;
• Understand the key components to successful safety leadership,
• Have a strategic approach, and
• Measure leadership to make sure they achieve it.
Leadership matters
Where are you now?
Does your organisation have a structured safety leadership program?
How does your organisation ensure the competency of your leadership team?
What opportunities do you have to improve your safety leadership?
Leadership matters
Where are we heading?
Continuous improvement of Water Corporation’s Safety Leadership program. Creating strong sustainable relationships with organisations willing to spend time and effort to develop safety leaders. Increased focus on leadership capability as part of pre-qualification and project award.

Hierarchical approach – elimination first, risk-taking behaviour, supervision
Hazardous Substances
Knowledge and control of risk, appropriate handling and storage processes, up-to-date registers and Safety Data Sheets (SDS)
Excavations
3 enemies 1) Depth 2) Load 3) Water, fall prevention (workers and public)
Road Safety
Protection of work sites adjacent to roads, work zone barriers (RTM sign-off)
General Environmental
Housekeeping, chemical storage, spill management, segregation of waste
Mobile Plant
Lifting operations, O/H & U/G services, communication, job planning
