—YEAR HIGHLIGHTS
•
•
We’ve developed a Pathway to Zero
plan to reduce incident levels to zero.
The plan integrates our rail safety, WHS
and environmental management systems
bringing an integrated approach that will
drive consistency, efficiency and clarity
in order to achieve our objectives.
•
•
We introduced a new process for the
investigation of environmental, rail safety,
and work health and safety events needing
formal investigation. Incident Cause
Analysis Methodology (ICAM) provides
a rigorous framework to establish facts
behind an incident and build the corrective
actions and controls to ensure they are not
repeated. To date we’ve trained 171 of our
team in ICAM.
•
•
We have continued to administer drug
and alcohol testing to ensure the safety
of our team across the network. We also
built the capacity of selected management
representatives to deliver on-site testing
in addition to testing done by independent
third parties.
We achieved a record low result for Lost
Time Injury Frequency Rate (number of
injuries for every million hours worked).
•
•
We supported Rail RUOK? Day with
47 separate morning teas hosted
by our teams across the country.
•
•
We’ve continued to support the Office
of the National Rail Safety Regulator
(ONRSR) and the commitment towards
national reform. In 2017, we saw
Queensland join, which brings all Australian
states and territories under one rail safety
regulator. ARTC works with ONRSR and
the rail industry to ensure safe railway
operations and promote national rail safety.
