Topic 3 - Safer handling of materials - Highly Commended
We have made significant improvements to the working environment at 2 key readymix production sites following a full assessment of the conditions and working activities of our operatives.
Due to a significant increase in production of our Value Added Products we saw a sharp rise in the manual handling of bespoke additional products which created added work for our operatives. This in turn presented a production safety risk.
At the same time equipment and processes were not in place for the safe handling and moving of these bespoke additional products from ground to elevated points on the site.
Please see additional pdf below for more information of what CEMEX did.
