We have introduced a number of initiatives to promote and maintain a fresh approach to safety within the global business. Schenk UK aims to complete every delivery both on-time and safely, without any incidents.
Safety Technology
All employees across the business have access to Airsweb. Airsweb is our web-based system in which every single incident, no matter how small, is recorded. The incident is not closed until a satisfactory resolution has been implemented and signed off by a Senior Manager. This allows us to continually improve our processes to reduce the chance of repeat issues reoccurring.
Behavioural Safety Audits
Behavioural Safety Audits (BSAs), are conducted by our Field Managers where they spend time managing safety in our employees’ own environment.
A BSA is conducted on safety-critical activities. These are unannounced and provide us with the opportunity to see how a task is completed day-to-day without supervision. This approach helps to develop a culture where safe behaviour is instinctive. The results of the BSA are entered into a database, from which we analyse trends and implement necessary remedial actions.
Internal Communications
All teams across our divisions have regular meetings to review safety, health, quality, and environmental performance. Issues are reviewed monthly by Schenk UK. In addition, monthly safety briefings are held with a focus on driver behaviour for all Schenk UK and supplier drivers, these focus on a different safety topic each month.
Depot Safety Audits
Directors and Senior Managers regularly visit depots and third party service providers to review performance and conduct safety audits. Schenk UK SHEQ (Safety Health Environment and Quality) Department also conduct regular depot audits, both announced and unannounced.
