Super Wednesday

Dear All,

Hands & Fingers will continue to be our focus for this week. Looking to the recent Lost Time Injures  ,  it was noticed that 5 out 7 LTIS were caused due people positioning their hands and fingers at the crush points during performing the task. As well , there were  clear indications of poor planning and weak intervention culture.

Kindly refer to the attached slides pack ¿ ¿Hands & Fingers¿ to engage and discuss the learning with your crews.
