SKSWood Celebrates Significant Milestone

Bandar Seri Begawan - A ceremony was held at Brunei Shell Recreation Club (B SRC) recently to mark a milestone in which no SKS Wood personnel had suffered any injury since December 2004.

Present as guest of honour at the `SKS Wood 4 Million Manhours TRC Free' ceremony was BSP Operations Services Manager Mike Fuge.

SKS Wood Managing Director Sandy Cambell said in a press statement, "Reaching four million manhours with out any injury to any of our people either onshore or offshore is a tremendous achievement for everyone connected with SKS Wood.

"Four million manhours TRC free means nobody working for SKSWood has suffered any injury since December 2004.

"It also represents 620 days since we last had an injury, 400,000 man days of work, over 6,000 offshore journeys, 2,200 tonnes of steel fabricated and installed, 3,000 individual jobs completed, 30 individual offshore maintenance campaigns, and over 5,000 toolbox talks and safety meetings," she said.

The press statement added, "Our success is the result of a large number of initiatives - investment in training, management leadership, team building workshops, poster campaigns, safe driving promotions, office safety awareness and many others.

`But above all, it was achieved as a result of the collective determination of all of us working in SKSWood to avoid injuring anyone working with us or alongside us.

"As we celebrate achieving this significant milestone we must also look to the future and how we will strive for even better performance in HS&E.

"We must guard against complacency, we must maintain our concentration and above all we must continue to apply the practices and skills which have allowed us to reach this level of HS&E performance," she added.

"Today we are extending our initiatives to include the families of SKSWood staff. We believe that by helping the children of our employees to better understand the risks to their health and safety, they will develop safe habits and enjoy healthy, uninjured and happy childhoods." -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
