2020 Vision On Safety

With the back to work meetings under our belts, it is good to take a moment to reflect on some of our headline health and safety achievements across the UK in 2019.

  • For the first time in three years there were no recordable fatalities.
  • We suffered just one employee LTI, something we only achieved once before, back in 2013… of course, we mustn’t overlook the three contractor LTIs.
  • Our employee LTI rate of 0.2 was within the challenging CEMEX Global target.
  • We reduced TRIs by 26% compared with 2018, with employee TRIs were down from 11 to 7 and contractor TRIs down from 8 to 7.
  • We achieved our lowest Employee TRI Frequency Rate on record:
Year Employee TRI Rate
2015 1.9
2016 1.6
2017 1.5
2018 1.7
2019 1.1

 

With the announcement of the sale of part of the business it is, however, essential that we don’t overlook the increased potential for injury that comes with distraction and change.

Please continue to step in and look out for yourselves and each other.
