#HSE TOP 100
Advanced work practices of finalists and participants in the national HSE TOP 100 rating: from contractor qualification and operational risk management to mentoring and competence development. This section features proven cases from industry leaders demonstrating a systemic approach to enhancing industrial safety, benchmarking, and effective tools for personnel engagement.
Minimizing Fires in Production
In-house modernization of production equipment to minimize fire risks. Implementation of technical solutions (software reconfiguration, protective guards, machine synchronization) and organizational measures (zonal fire alarms, practical fire extinguisher training) to transition from reactive to proactive fire safety management.
Effective Communications: How to Talk About Safety Engagingly
A comprehensive approach to transforming HSE communications using marketing tools and neural networks. The practice includes auditing the HSE department's image using the Hudson model, developing an editorial policy, creating engaging content based on triggers, and applying AI to visualize instructions and generate videos.
From Local Function to Business Partnership: What Competencies Should an HSE Employee Develop?
Transforming the HSE specialist's role from controller to business partner. Developing new competencies (empathy, critical thinking, Lean, stakeholder management) to integrate safety into business processes.
Development from an Ordinary Specialist to a Professional: How to Find Your Path and Become an In-Demand Expert
A methodology for conscious professional growth and burnout prevention for HSE specialists. Includes self-analysis tools ("Lifeline", "Wheel of Well-being") and a technique for decomposing long-term goals ("Plan from a Dream") to develop soft skills and transition from an inspector to a partner role.
Living Safety Culture: From Instructions to Communications
Implementation of internal functional coaching and communication practices to develop a safety culture. The approach includes training line managers in live incident reporting (storytelling, dialogue, rituals) and improving the effectiveness of safety tools (DRA, BSA) through open dialogue with employees.
Improving the Efficiency of Safety Processes, Identifying and Developing Internal System Reserves
Centralization of the HSE function and transition to process management with designated process leaders. Unification of local regulations, risk-based planning, and digitalization of routine operations (medical exams, SAWC, work permits, briefings).
Tools for Motivating Employees Towards Safe Work
Implementation of a comprehensive personnel motivation system for safe work, including the "Best Employee" and "Best Department" nominations, the "Safety Idea" rationalization proposal program, and the "Insight: Public Control" mobile app for recording risks. Using incognito mode at the start to overcome resistance, followed by a transition to material and non-material rewards for active participants.
Risk Management Through Eliminating Root Causes of Hazardous Situations
A systemic approach to risk management through root cause analysis of hazardous situations and non-conformities (Five Whys method, barrier analysis). The practice includes collecting data from various sources (audits, BSA, video recording, hotline), identifying recurring basic causes, and transforming training programs based on real cases.
Safety Culture: How Practical Training Changes Employee Behavior
Integration of HSE issues and risk assessment into practical technical training programs for maintenance personnel. Creation of training complexes with duplicated equipment to practice safe routine operations, including verbalizing actions and mutual control via checklists.
Digitalization of Occupational Safety Processes
Creation of an HSE digital service ecosystem by an in-house programmer. Modules for behavioral audits, hazard registration, order relevance control, and electronic permits-to-work were implemented with integration into the corporate portal and accounting system.
Implementation of Innovative Emulsion-Aerosol Fire Suppression Technology. Minimizing Hazardous Events at Tank Farm Loading Racks
Implementation of innovative emulsion-aerosol fire suppression technology at tank farm loading racks. Transitioning to bottom loading systems to minimize risks of static electricity and falls from height, as well as comprehensive work with contractors using 3D simulators and joint exercises with EMERCOM.
How to Train Employees to Conduct High-Quality Behavior-Based Safety Audits?
Integration of Behavior-Based Safety (BBS) training into professional skills competitions and mini-trainings. Practical training of BBS skills using simulated situations, prepared "violators", photo cases, and checklists with a "persuasiveness" criterion.
