For the h&s bods

[tommy.dale]

Evening chaps hope everyone is well,

my firm at the moment are going health and safety mad (more than usual) and as they have just put me through the sssts course there asking (testing) me on some new initiatives that I could try to implement towards working better increasing work keeping moral etc, I've come up with a few regarding a separate near miss register where by who ever promotes the most every 3 months gets a bonus etc, our main client is BP Oil so they are massively in favour of this but I was wondering if anyone has any good Ideas that I could try a snatch any feedback is welcome!

Hi Tommy,

Your idea of giving a bonus to the one who does the most is a good idea, but! You need to also hold them accountable, so if they highlight a near miss (Hazard) what did they do about it. Make them have some sort of accountability or you will have tons of near misses, and no closures of them. If a near miss is reported, then it has to be actioned by some one, and i will guarantee that whoever raises to issue will want nowt to do with fixing it, he is only interested in giving someone else a million things to do so he gets his bonus.

Cheers.........Howard

All hard hats must have a chin strap to ensure it never falls off. That may get you a brownie point?

thanks for the reply mate, sounds silly but they want as many as possible as they think that if we're reporting a certain amount per month then in due course it will reduce any accidents, we have a another initiative which say if you report 30 near misses a month then rectify it while on site then it's classes as chargeable works which of course earns the company money as well as the engineers, but as I'm trying to make a name of myself here I really want to try and put in to place some more suggestions

Clean safety bonus for teams (areas) who complete the year with a 100% incident free record(bar near miss). (small bonus and could use it as an excuse to do safety spot checks :sunny:.)

and no shell suits to be worn (and I dont mean ninja turtle outfits)

Sounds to me like it's making work for people. "OOOOO let's get them really thinking about H&S and reporting stuff that doesn't need to be reported so it looks like we're really great" Ffs the lads will spend so much time on this cack that they'll never get any work done.

 

[tommy.dale]

The problem is mate we only rarely get one incident every other month so the guys are doing there jobs properly (some just dont get caught) that is a good idea though bud

 

[trev]

Once again, someone in a suit sees something that isn't broken and decides to fix it.....fantastic.

Part and parcel of this poxy contract trev, I hate doing this as all my experience on site is everyone hates the h&s but as this is a shyte economy to working in I'm trying to further myself as best as possible and trying to exploit another avenue to keep a half decent job, beggars can't be choosers lol

 

[brookster]

This one is nasty lol - Preform random checks under the guise - that if you pass random spot check team gets £X bonus, everyone kept on their toes throughout, do one random check each team each year.
If someone fails they will improve as the teams who won will naturally rub it in.(duncing )

 

[tommy.dale]

Bearing in mind I'm a spark and I'm doing this to try and keep my job if there are any cuts as the contract is up for renewal next year
