Life Saving Rules
It is proposed that a set of Life Saving Rules (LSR) be adopted nationally, which are an enforced set of behavioural-based rules related to hazards commonly faced in our industry. A number of forest management companies already have similar types of behavioural rules that if breached will put your life or others at risk.
The draft set of LSR (provided below) is currently being considered by a range of stakeholders within industry for feedback. It is anticipated these will potentially be reduced to 8 – 12 key behaviours. It is proposed that AFCA members will also be provided support to implement these into their business and will be given a framework that supports them into action.
Both projects are designed to improve individual safety behaviour performance and the image of the industry across the country. AFCA is considering both of these two projects, including if AFCA should make a formal commitment by signing a Charter or Statement of Commitment endorsing these nationally.
We need to hear from members before making a final decision on whether to support these.
