4. SAFETY CULTURE
“Safety culture” – Moral, social behavioral norms of an
Organization which describes the way in which safety is
managed in the workplace and often reflects "the
attitudes, beliefs, perceptions and values that employees
share in relation to safety”.
“Organizations with a positive safety culture are characterized by
communications founded on mutual trust, by shared perceptions of
the importance of safety and by confidence in the efficacy of
preventive measures”.

6. WHY WORLD CLASS SAFETY
Construction industry is not the same as it was earlier, Globalization
has given it a revised definition - Indian construction is going
international and international players are marching towards India.
We are the best in class in Domestic Environment with Domestic Customers
competing with Domestic Players,
but..
When we go International / getting associated with International customers in
domestic environment. The Safety Standards differ..!, Our competitors vary..!!,
Evaluation Criteria varies..!!! All players are building their HSE capabilities..!!
Where are we placed??

8. EXISTING WAYS
Deploying HSE personnel at Site.
Setting HSE Objectives.
Collection of data.
Conducting Audits - Some findings
More Audits - More findings & correction
Matching of Audits…… No further Improvements
In addition, we put our best efforts to comply with the customer needs &
requirements.
The above indicates the REACTIVE way of working - LAG, rather than being
PROACTIVE – LEAD.
Safety as a line function is lacking in ownership.

13. BRING TRANSFORMATION IN SAFETY CULTURE
Engage & educate every individual of the
organization & Stake holders on Importance of
Safety as a core value.
Lead by Values rather than managing by Rules.
Bring in Self Driven Consciousness rather than
being Customer Driven.

14. MEASURING SYSTEM
1 FATAL
10 LTIs / MTIs
30 First Aids
300 Near Misses
Bottom of Pyramid is missing (mostly not reported) giving false trigger on other
indicators.
How can we improve the reporting??
Existing Proposed
Frequency Rate : No. Of LTI x 10 ^6 No. Of (LTI + MTI)
Man hours worked Total No. of Incidents*
* - Total No. Of incidents should include “Near Miss & First Aid” also.
North Region – New Delhi
15. CAPACITY BUILDING OF SUB CONTRACTORS
Bring Sub Contractors on Board with L&T’s Safety Vision.
Evaluate them in terms of HSE & make it as one of the
qualification criteria.
Motivate them by means of creating opportunities &
competition among them across Sites, Clusters, Regions etc
Recognize them by means of Awards / Rewards,
Certificates etc.
Penalties on violation/bad performance.
North Region – New Delhi
16. TRAINING ACROSS ORGANISATION & WORKERS
Display of posters, warning signs and policies are not
enough. Educate & provide regular information about
safety.
Training should be ongoing throughout an individual’s time
in the organization.
People who are properly trained in their jobs are aware of
hazards associated with their role & those they supervise
are less likely to suffer or cause injury.
