Safety

Safety is of paramount importance to our business. Our award winning Injury Free Environment (IFE) programme is leading the foundation industry.

Skanska is committed to Injury Free Environment (IFE), and through our safety leadership team we hold ourselves accountable in the following ways:

Care and concern for all
We possess distinct family values and expect everyone to take personal responsibility for the care of themselves and those around them. With IFE we recognise all who support this culture. Collectively, we are accountable for ensuring that everyone returns home safely and without injury, every day.

Personal behaviour 
At a personal level we should lead by example, be challenging and intolerant of any activity that creates risk of harm, regardless of the consequences. At the same time we encourage and reward safe behaviour, and celebrate and publicise our successes.

Communications
Any person may communicate freely, and feedback is encouraged. We are committed to ensuring that all lessons from feedback are in turn, communicated widely and effectively to everyone in our company.

The journey we face is one of continual change, committed to improving our working environment, and to delivering ever-safer projects. Any events shall be treated as opportunities to learn, change and improve.

Our business priorities are strictly:
Safety before quality before performance.
