The results
The program resulted in an improved safety culture throughout the organization, covering risk identification, work procedures and the use of personal protective equipment. No serious disabling accidents were reported during project turnaround and rehabilitation, a significant achievement given that the client’s operations involved high-risk activities and over 6,000 workers. The culture of emergency-response and emergency-response-specific plans and drills was significantly improved, as was staff motivation and morale with regard to safe practices.
