Safety is a core valure for Reinforced Earth
Organization, equipment, processes, and techniques: it is integrated at all levels of our companies. Our collective and individual commitment is based on strict health and safety rules, but also on a strong safety culture shared by all Terre Armée teams.
In terms of safety, Terre Armée has one objective: to achieve zero major accidents for our employees and our service providers, whether in our offices, on our sites, in our plants or on the road.
This is why safety is at the heart of our projects, from the call for tenders to the execution of the site, including the design of our technical processes. When we act as technical assistance, we strive to provide our customers with all the best operational methods to carry out the installation without any improvisation.
Thanks to our safety culture developed over the years, safety is integrated in all operations and in the daily behavior of Terre Armée teams.
Some of our actions in the field
- TRAINING AND AWARENESS – Keeping on strengthening the safety culture within the Terre Armée Group is key. We encourage our employees to integrate safety at every stage of our projects and within our plants. We painstakingly raise awareness and train our workforce so that they are proactively in accident prevention and safety.
- MANAGERIAL COMMITMENT AND LEADERSHIP – Managers at all levels are closely involved in safety. They set an example, ensure effective implementation of safety measures, notably by regularly visiting the worksite, and pay close attention to feedback from the teams in the field. Sharing our successes and best practices is fundamental at Terre Armée.
- REVIEW AND ANALYSIS OF ALL ACCIDENTS AND NEARMISSES – Our safety culture is nurtured by the systematic in depth review of all kinds of incidents, especially those with a high potential for gravity. Sharing the root causes and corrective action plan helps avoid recurrence and improve safety. A debriefing is systematically planned with the company’s senior management and shared among the group’s entities for learning.
