A Director or Senior Manager attended each site and made a presentation to staff during the Health & Safety meeting, in particular reminding staff of the near-miss reporting procedure. They also launched the company’s new 12-month behavioural safety campaign Make Noise about Safety as well as the health and safety poster campaign designed by children of Group employees.

 

The film “Silence is Consent” was shown and the senior member of staff walked round to meet and greet staff unable to attend the meeting for operational reasons.

 

The day helped emphasise the important health and safety aspect of Actitudes, the company’s sustainable development policy and coincided with the “International Day of Action for Safety & Health at Work”, commemorated through the official “UK Workers Memorial Day”.

 

Staff received a Make Noise about Safety mug and keyring as a reminder that they have a professional and personal commitment to the health and safety of themselves and their colleagues during the working day.

 

Emmanuel Chautemps, Director of support services at Ecovert Group, says “The day came together very well and first feedback tells us that it has been very effective in relaying the ongoing health and safety message to a large number of staff across sites and head office.”
