All the Group’s functions (Equipment, Purchasing, Engineering, HR, etc.) play a part in the effective roll-out of training and material resources tailored to our demanding safety standards and working conditions.
Another aspect of our safety culture is the daily safety rituals on our worksites, which help to anticipate and avoid risks. These include a morning warm-up, a safety briefing before starting work, and the ‘STOP’ rule, which makes it a priority for any of our employees to stop work as soon as they identify weak signals indicating the risk of a dangerous situation occurring.
We need to set a perfect example in Health and Safety, everywhere we operate. We have a responsibility to our employees and all those who work on our operations to guarantee a safe and calm working environment. When they have finished a day’s work, everyone should be able to go home to their families in a good state of health. This ambition, supported at the highest level of the company, has always been part of our DNA. We are striving to embed it in everyone’s mindset and in every process.
Zero Serious Accidents is our target, for Bouygues Construction employees, temporary workers and subcontractors as well as for partners working on construction sites for which Bouygues Construction is the lead contractor.
