Whilst we suffered No Lost Time Injuries (LTIs) or Recordable Injuries (TRIs) in the week, a Driver working for one of our contract hauliers was involved in an incident that had potential for very serious, if not fatal, injuries. 

The Driver’s tipper vehicle, which was loaded with asphalt, left the road at high speed with the cab detaching from the chassis as the trailer became embedded in the ground.  The Driver walked away from the incident without major injury because he was wearing his seatbelt. The cause of the incident is being investigated and any learning points will be shared, however, in the meantime Teams are encouraged to display and discuss the poster to remind everyone of the importance of always wearing a seatbelt while travelling in a vehicle.
