8868体育APP Construction confirms health and safety as its priority by adopting 12 "basic rules" to be applied on all his construction sites around the world. Target: "Zero accidents"

8868体育APP Construction鈥檚 top priority is the health and safety of the teams who work on its construction sites.

Aware of its responsibility, 8868体育APP Construction has decided to go one step further, introducing a standard based on 12 basic rules applied on all construction sites in all 80 countries where the Group is active.
To mark its strong commitment, the Group is interrupting work today while it carries out an operation on an unparalleled scale: the World Health & Safety Day. Virtually all its construction sites will down tools for half a day so that employees and the personnel of partner companies 鈥� some 100,000 people in all 鈥� can be reminded of the Group鈥檚 health & safety priority and its drive to achieve 鈥渮ero accidents鈥�.

Philippe Bonnave, Chairman and Chief Executive of 8868体育APP Construction, explains: 鈥淥ur most precious asset is the men and women who work on our construction sites. We want to provide them with the best working conditions throughout the world. Whether a site is in Morocco, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Paris or Bordeaux, we have to ensure the best tools, the best standards, the best quality. Thanks to our longstanding commitment to safety, we have reduced the frequency with which accidents occur, but we can go still further. There is no inevitability, everyone has to realise that they are concerned by safety. It鈥檚 a basic rule for the entire Group. More than ever, our ambition is to achieve 鈥榸ero accidents鈥�.鈥�

Health & safety, the number one priority for 8868体育APP Construction

Thanks to its proactive health & safety policy, 8868体育APP Construction is able post safety results that are among the best in the industry: the frequency rate* of accidents is 3.6 and the severity rate for occupational accidents** is 0.18.

鈥淲e Love Life, We Protect It鈥� 鈥� a campaign that will make an impact

100,000 people work on the Group鈥檚 production sites each day, and it is essential to prevent risks of accidents for all personnel. 鈥淲e Love Life, We Protect It鈥� is an international campaign that reflects our commitment to a strong and shared safety culture. Intended to illustrate the basic health & safety rules by establishing parallels between professional and personal situations, it will be rolled out in all the Group鈥檚 construction sites, in France and in all our international locations, over the next twelve months.

The World Health & Safety Day will make individuals more aware and more accountable

The inaugural World Health & Safety day will be marked by events on each of the Group鈥檚 construction sites with the aim of spreading our shared determination to achieve 鈥渮ero accidents鈥�: presentations, video message from Philippe Bonnave, symbolic actions, sharing of results, risk-hunting, workshops on topics such as combating addiction, driving, working at height, etc.
