#Working at height
Safety and risk control for working at height. Climbing actions remain critically hazardous areas. Focuses on physical barriers, inspecting safety harness systems, DROPS standard, and rescuing personnel.
Freight Car Building: Manufacturer Efficiency VS Customer Safety
Integration of safety elements (brake shoes and structural anchors for fall protection systems) directly into the freight rolling stock design at the production stage. The initiative aims to reduce injury risks for consumer companies and change industry standards in railcar building.
Cardinal Safety Rules: Placebo or Effective Medicine
Implementation and optimization of Cardinal Safety Rules (CSR) in a large industrial company. Reducing the list to six key rules, strict enforcement (up to dismissal), and analyzing the impact on fatal injury statistics.
Contractor Engagement Practices
A comprehensive contractor safety management system at high-hazard facilities. Includes integrating HSE requirements into contracts, implementing 12 life-saving rules, 5S, DROPS, scaffolding and lifting accessories control, and digitalizing high-risk and SIMOPS control.
Safety Practices During Scheduled Preventive Maintenance
A comprehensive approach to safety management during scheduled preventive maintenance (SPM), including preventive practical training ("Safety Weeks") and weekly mass gatherings ("Safety Assemblies"). The practice aims to engage regular staff and contractors, increase risk awareness, and build a zero-injury culture through visual training, public recognition, and a feedback system.
Worker Admission System for Safe Work
Automated 1C-based worker admission system for high-risk work. A multi-level barrier system was implemented, preventing task issuance to personnel without up-to-date training, medical exams, or those absent from work.
Measures to Eliminate Risks When Working at Height
A comprehensive approach to reducing risks when working at height, including organizing a ladder testing area, implementing anchor systems, and creating a training ground. The practice aims to eliminate the use of faulty equipment, ensure continuous fall protection, and develop practical evacuation skills.
Working at Height Risk Assessment
Caring for Contractors
Transformation of the contractor management system, shifting from penalties to targeted safety investments. A multilevel admission system was implemented, including theoretical training with 24/7 mobile access, practical testing at training grounds, and automatic blocking of work permits in CIS "ESNDOR" if uncertified.
Contractor Management Strategy
A multi-stage contractor management system at a hazardous production facility, including prequalification at the tender stage, two-stage site admission, and continuous control. The practice integrates motivation tools (replacing fines with PPE purchases), regular contractor ranking, and cascading international Vision Zero and 5Z concepts.
HSE Management System Transformation in Contractor Organizations
Transformation of the HSE management system when working with contractors through culture change and partnership building. Implementation of joint line walkdowns with strict communication rules to identify root causes of violations and organizational issues.
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.
