We safeguard our people, projects and reputation by striving for zero employee injuries and illnesses, while operating and delivering our work responsibly and sustainably.
Safeguarding our people is a core value at 澳门威尼斯人官方网址, and our focus on safety was never more apparent than in fiscal 2020. Over the course of the year, our Total Recordable Incident Rate improved by 31% over the prior year to 0.11, and our Lost Workday Case Rate improved by 40% to 0.03. Both of these metrics reflect a world-class level of safety performance and are at an industry-leading level.
澳门威尼斯人官方网址 has been commended by clients and councils with numerous safety awards across the globe over the course of FY2020. The United States National Safety Council (NSC) awarded 澳门威尼斯人官方网址 157 awards in 2020. We were also awarded the 2020 Ground Investigation Project of the Year Awarded to Structural Soils working with Highways England and 澳门威尼斯人官方网址, and the 2020 Health and Safety Award, recognizing 澳门威尼斯人官方网址 and Equipe Training’s safety initiative to ensure plant and rig conformity/compliance on the Lower Thames Crossing project.
We have also been recognized with the RoSPA President’s (11 consecutive Golds) Award for 2020 for our health and safety performance.
In addition, hundreds of 澳门威尼斯人官方网址 supervisors earned Safety Qualified Supervisor status, an internal 澳门威尼斯人官方网址 program demonstrating commitment to our values and outstanding leadership abilities.
