Supervisor? RCI Disabled
Are we learning…………….? “Familiarity with procedures to point of complacency” “Demand, perceived or real, to prioritise production over other matters including safety” “Ineffective inspection regime” “Vulnerability to human error”
Piper Alpha – 25 years ago The sobering reality is to recognise that the failings identified in the Cullen Report which investigated the disaster, have the potential to cross all industry and geographical boundaries. Irrespective of the views held, the reality is that we should not close our eyes to the potentially detrimental effects of complacency, overfamiliarity, failure to heed warnings from the workforce and ineffective inspection regimes. Such issues are valid in all industries and work locations.
Lessons from Hope Incident Key Performance Indicators Cultures & Behaviours Risk Identification Fatigue Management Safety Responsibilities
Accident RatioYear end position 12/13 Fatality Major Injury (RIDDOR) Over 7 day Injury (RIDDOR) Minor Accidents Close Call Statistics show performance is consistent with last year’s level (Contractors’ injuries in brackets)
1. Key Performance Indicators Ensure that you have appropriate KPI’s to measure performance Test these, objectively and regularly Understand and act on trends and findings Review the effectiveness of existing tours and inspections process and investigate the proposal to set up a team of dedicated site inspectors/auditors who do nothing but visit sites, comment on safety and draw the site leader’s and management’s attention to poor behaviour / bad practices / unsafe issues
2. Culture & Behaviours • Current training programmes, and competency assessments, are not enough in themselves • More thought and effort is required to measure and change culture • Complacency led to erosion of standards and good practice • On wider investigation there were areas where good practices and adherence to rules were shown – inconsistency across company • Zero tolerance applied to knowingly breaking rules. Especially life saving rules – A “Just Culture” can/must also have consequences! • In conjunction with Network Rail undertake a formal industry wide investigation into the behavioural and cultural issues that impact on delivery activities and are underpinned by the perception that “production is king” and “challenging unsafe acts is career limiting”
3. Risk Identification & Management • Risk management is not a cut and paste exercise • Risks awareness and assessment should be done progressively through project life cycle with a focus on the planning stage • If point of work assessments are allowed during work, then the application and checking of this process needs to be rigorous • Engineering trains were usually late on site. Contingency plans were not clear what actions to take. On the night trains were 1 hour late.
4. Fatigue Management • The management of fatigue needs to be more effective (In Babcock) • Current tools may not be user friendly • Review roster programme against bar chart deliverables using the HSE Fatigue Risk Management Tool to develop management arrangements to control staff fatigue
5. Safety Responsibilities • Clear definition of safety responsibilities are required • Although important on site, needs to be understood right through organisation
