Safety Moment

How many times have you heard a child exclaim “It’s not my fault!” or “it wasn’t me!”?

Whether or not these statements are true is beside the point. A responsible person will say “it’s not my fault, but it’s my problem”.

These individual’s identify themselves by their actions, they pickup that piece of garbage on the ground, they’re quick to lend a co-worker a hand or show them a better, safer way. The step up and take the high road any chance they get.

Why? Because these people see an opportunity every time a situation presents itself. An opportunity to eliminate a trip hazard, an opportunity to lighten the load for a co-worker or help keep them out of harms way.

They may not be a supervisor or a lead hand, but they lead by example, they answer to themselves.

When you get enough of these people working together, you get a company of people that do the right things, follow safe procedures, help and look out for each other and co-workers throughout the site. They project an image of accountability and carry a reputation for getting things done and asking “what else can we help you with”

When you are in the Line of Fire you are at risk of coming into direct contact with a force your body cannot endure.

What are some examples of Line of Fire Incidents that you have been made aware of in your areas?

Where are we with enterprise-wide safety campaigns?

Get a Grip on Safety: Mid September- Mid March

In 2013, (Sept-Dec) Get a Grip:

• Sent 18 less people to hospital

• This represents a 49% reduction in recordable Slip, Trip &

Fall injuries compared to the same period in 2012/13

• Reduced the cost incurred by recordable incidents by

roughly $800,000

• Introduced enterprise-wide campaigns

• Focused on home, office and site related slips, trips and falls

• A 5 year plan for enterprise-wide safety campaigns is

currently being created

The “Get a Grip” campaign included 6 activity packages:

1. Transition Zones and Walkways2. Boots and Grips 3. Access and Egress4. Home Safety5. Eyes on Path6. Ladder Safety

Where are we now with Line of Fire (LOF)?

• LOF hazards, and the opportunity to correct them are often overlooked

• People often unknowingly put themselves in the Line of Fire

• Line of Fire related injuries are common and can lead to serious injury

• There was no consistent approach to Line of Fire reduction at Suncor

• Line of Fire is aligned with the Life Saving Rules

• Line of Fire hazards exist year round (no seasonal trend like Get a Grip)

• Some previously use Line of Fire initiatives exist including;

• Major Projects and Oil Sands: Some Line of Fire work has been done

• In Situ: 4 Pink

• Turn Around: Drop Zone - the other “Get a Grip”

• R&M has started introducing Line of Fire into its workforces

Creating a enterprise-wide injury reduction campaign for Line of Fire is a large opportunity

What is Line of Fire?

Industry Standards break Line of Fire into three mechanisms of injury:

Stored Energy:Contact with stored energy

Striking Hazards:Struck by or striking against an objectIncludes falling objects

Crushing Hazards:Caught in, on or between an object

You are in the Line of Fire when you are at risk of coming into contact with a force your body cannot endure.

Proposed Goal:

To focus on and reduce Line of Fire related incident enterprise-wide, by 20% year over year.

A minimum of 21 less people sent to the hospital for treatment

Proposed program to support goal is strategically aligned:The Suncor Way:

• Supporting our core values including overriding commitments to safety, respect, raising the bar, honoring commitments and doing the right thing the right way.

Suncor Value Driver:

• Continue to advance Suncor’s journey to operational excellence.

Environment, Health & Safety goal:

• Continue to advance a strong safety culture through enterprise Journey to Zero initiatives:

• Training

• Campaigns

• Operational Controls
