RISQS Webinar - Managing Fatigue and Presenting Safe Work Packs
20/09/2023
The railway industry has a collective responsibility to ensure every employee goes home safely at the end of their working day.
Yet RISQS continues to see evidence of suppliers importing risk through outdated and incomplete documents.
While it may ‘save’ time and costs to recycle work packs from one job to the next, it increases the risk of accidents occurring. When we get safe work planning wrong, it does result in fatalities.
Therefore, Scheme Manager Phil Smith held a webinar on Thursday 14th September 2023 to directly address this important topic.
Our latest collation of audit results within 7.2 Managing Fatigue have found:
- 36% of suppliers are not following compliance in modules within NR/L2/OHS/003.
- 25% of suppliers do not have a complete risk assessment on fatigue calculating and mitigating risk.
Background information can be found by reading the Safe System of Work Planning Protocol.
