At Omexom, thorough orientation guides employees to constantly take occupational safety into consideration in everyday work. In addition to safety briefings and reviews, safety is seamlessly incorporated into every working duty.
Fingrid is investing in occupational safety by arranging several different types of orientation, training and occupational safety promotion events for service providers. Some of these are included in the contractual terms and conditions concerning safety.
Working in substations and on power lines requires service providers to have special expertise and uncompromising occupational safety management. Fingrid verifies the competences of the personnel of service providers involved in maintenance work through qualification. It is hoped that a national qualification practice will be agreed for the sector.
At Fingrid, responsibility is part of the daily routine. Responsibility applies to personnel well-being, occupational safety, data protection, environmental impacts, and the tax footprint. The following examples illustrate that it also includes responsibility for procurements and contractual partners. Business is open so that Fingrid can deliver. Reliably.
We wanted to make reporting safety observations as easy as possible during the campaign. Actively submitting safety observations is worthwhile because each person’s safety thinking improves when they pay more attention to the matter.
The level of occupational safety improved noticeably in 2018. The credit for this goes to all the people who work in Fingrid’s investments and maintenance. We clearly achieved the intermediate target set for lost-time injury frequency in 2018, and we can also be satisfied with this result.
The biggest safety risks in Fingrid’s operations are related to physical work that is mainly performed by main and subcontractors specialised in that field. Occupational safety has always been considered a priority, and is taken into account in the contract agreements.
The Safety on the Lines magazine is now linked with our customer magazine, because occupational safety is Fingrid’s number one priority in all its activities.
