Take 5 Awards Flyer

1. Issue 26 Jun 17 TAKE 5 Awards Program
Everyone agrees that proactive
safety activities can help
prevent injuries. They help
ensure your own safety and the
safety of those around you,
allowing us to return home safe
to our family and friends at the
end of each day.
And yet everyday shortcuts in
safety are taken to get jobs
done faster, or safety is
compromised due to work
activities being so ingrained in
our minds that we go on
autopilot, and forget or dismiss,
against our better judgement
the need to check for potential
safety hazards.
Checklists are there to remind
us of the simple things that our
brain tends to forget. They can
be used to prompt us to stop
and take a moment to assess
the situation and our immediate
work environment. Checking for
potential safety hazards allows
us to manage risk, whilst
minimising the chance of injury,
and with the right processes, it
can take only five minutes.
DID YOU KNOW THAT!!!
The use of a Take 5 checklist in
the workplace reminds us to stop
and take five minutes to assess
our work environments so we
can get the job done safely. A
few important minutes can help
avoid injury and even death.
Remember the quickest way
isn’t necessarily the safest way,
so Take 5 to make sure you and
your workers complete the job
safely.
As part of Infraworks commitment to
Safety we are recognising our
employee’s efforts in identifying
potential hazards and implementing
the appropriate controls by way of
the “Take 5” process in your
Assignar Fieldworker App.
Periodically Infraworks will be
awarding $50 Coles Group & Myer
gift vouchers for those of you that
are actively using the Take 5’s and
can be seen to be improving safety
on the job.
Please note: Awards will not be
handed out just on sheer volume of
Take 5’s submitted
“The task is the same as
yesterday, however there has
been significant rain overnight”
Should I complete a Take 5?
“I haven’t
completed this task
before”, should I
complete a Take 5?
“The task is the same as yesterday,
however the location of the job has
changed” Should I complete a Take 5?
The answer to these
questions is “YES”
