(rock music) - When I first started safety doing as a safety superintendent, we were, I don't think we had any iPads in the field at the foreman level. And now every foreman has an iPad. Every traffic control supervisor has an iPad and any control lead has an iPad so that they can do their daily meetings, their JHAs, their Observations, their Near Misses. And we have implemented a matrix of, you know, you have to do, if you're the frontline foreman, you have to do a daily meeting every day.
You're encouraged to do observations. We have a safety incentive program that we recognize people for their above and beyond safe observations, safe habits. And when you get a safety chip and a recognition of it, then we'll put it on the observations. We can do a JHA now, turn it into a meeting and then have that earmarked so it's a skill then that allows everybody to see what different employees have under their belt.
So they've been proficiently trained as best we can to those high risk, high incident rate tasks. We now know they've had a JHA, they've had a meeting, and then the skills prove it so that we can look up each employee and verify what they've been taught and trained and make sure they're doing the right things that they should be doing.
