Fatality Prevention and Project Lifecycle Risk Management- An Evolving Model Martin Smith Group GM Health, Safety, Quality and Environment
![Page 2: Martin Smith, Tenix, presents at the OHS Leaders Summit 2013](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/558b0708d8b42a8d0f8b4743/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Defining Key Terms
Project Life Cycle How a construction project is planned, controlled, and monitored from its inception to its completion including handover for operations (does not include pre-feasibility or feasibility studies) Fatality or Serious Injury Precursor A combination of hazard(s) and underlying causal factors that if left unaddressed can result in fatal or serious injury.
Single Layer Defence Only one layer of defence/control is in place to prevent the occurrence of a fatality or serious injury; typically PPE.

The Key Question
Why do high performing organisations with developing/mature approaches to safety continue to have fatalities and/or single layer defence events?
![Page 4: Martin Smith, Tenix, presents at the OHS Leaders Summit 2013](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/558b0708d8b42a8d0f8b4743/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

We needed to adjust our approach to recognising and managing fatality exposures (Technical and culture) Technical: • Re-design and implementation of safety systems • Challenge current Risk Model • Focus on likely precursors to fatalities • Ensure multiple layers of protection/control for high risk hazards • Develop capability at each level of the business
Re-thinking our strategy for fatal risk !!
How Have we Responded?

Fatality Prevention Framework
1. Re-define and sell the value proposition for Fatality Prevention 2. Assess current situation and determine required cultural and
technical shift 3. Identify and document precursors to fatalities 4. Conduct risk assessment and establish priorities for intervention 5. Ensure adequate levels of protection/control 6. Address underlying factors 7. Ensure adequacy of infrastructure (systems, metrics etc) 8. Institutionalise the approach

Fatality Prevention Protocols (FPP’s)
1. Traffic Management 2. Confined Space 3. Work Vehicles and Road Safety 4. Working at Heights 5. Electrical Hazards 6. Mobile Plant 7. Working with Live Services 8. Heavy Lifting (Cranes) 9. Temporary Works 10. Scaffolding

Establishing a More Effective Risk Management model
Focusing on the identification and management of fatal risk at the early stages of the project life cycle (PLC) (when the project management system is evolving) to ensure improved project delivery outcomes Integrating safety risk factors of different project stages and managing the high risk hazards based on PLC is an appropriate way to establish an effective risk management model for fatal risk control

Key Underpinning Assumption
Project safety risks develop based on a "chain effect" – high risk factors in one stage affect other stages, and high consequence/low probability events that happen during construction/operations are amplified in the later stages of the life of the project

‘Five Pillars’ Management Reviews
1. To ensure that prospects are aligned with our philosophy and approach to safety (prior to developing the bid) 2. Ensure all fatal risks are identified with effective mitigation plans costed (prior to bid submission) 3. Deliver against project HSEQ Plans, mitigate risks including fatal risks (monthly) 4. Monitor Divisional performance to avoid surprises (monthly) 5. Ensure Divisions deliver on Zero Harm Plans (monthly)

This is a Work in Progress... • Continue to analyse data for incident precursors and any
unexpected/hidden relationships at company level • Continue to provide training to key personnel on PLC risk management
and Fatality Prevention Protocols (Designers , BD, Estimators etc) • Maintain focus on higher-risk activities / operations through the
Executive and the Board • Codify FPP’s into WHSMS and make them habitual • Strengthen the audit program- Fatality Prevention Audits • Feed Lessons Learnt process into ‘Market to Contract’ Phase • Continue to evolve fatality prevention metrics that are predictive and
robust • Continue to have risk focused/discovery conversations
