Making Safety Personal

Valuing our people, our greatest asset, means that good health, safety and wellbeing practices are woven into the fabric of our culture.

Our Approach

“Making Safety Personal” means that each of us is accountable for promoting a safe and healthy workplace for ourselves and others potentially affected by our activities. It also means that the leadership team of each of our regions must minimize risks and ensure that their business and people comply with our health and safety requirements.

Our Global Health, Safety and Wellbeing Policy, our Expectations for Health, Safety and Wellbeing Management and our 2021-2023 Roadmap provide the framework of our management approach towards achieving our Zero Harm Vision.

Zero Harm Vision

Our Zero Harm Vision is a commitment shared by all businesses and employees to consider and effectively reduce risks from our activities by seeking innovative solutions, enabling us to get home safely at the end of each day. Through our Zero Harm Pillars, our goal is to ensure that our activities result in:

Zero fatalities
Zero permanently disabling injuries
Zero injuries to members of the public
Zero long-term harm to health

Our Performance

We achieved our year-end aims for 2020, including our annual target of less than 0.1 Lost Time Injury Rate (per 100,000 hours worked), as well as progress on our Roadmap activities.

One of the ways we are improving our performance is through increased event reporting. We have seen a significant increase in reporting year-on-year across all event types since 2015, and this enables us to better understand the hazards and risks we come across daily in our business and take action where required.

WSP’s event reporting is managed through our integrated Safety Management System (iSMS). This ensures reporting is accurate and consistent, and enables us to measure progress towards Zero Major Incidents. Any one of our employees, as well as contractors, partners or any professional involved in our projects can report from their desk using the public form, or in the field with the reporting App. iSMS is available to be used on all client projects.
