In fact, the construction sector has the highest rate of occupational accidents, accounting for 31% of all, according to the 2018 occupational accident report of the Bureau of Occupational Safety. The four major causes of death are fall from height (22%), fall and collapse (21%), electric shock (11%), and roller and clamping device (11%).
Mr. Truong Anh Hai, Deputy General Director of Health, Safety, Environment and Community (HSE & C) of NS BlueScope Vietnam shared a study showing that implementing corporate safety culture is not an obstacle but a motivation for development. This study has shown that implementing corporate safety culture brings about benefits:
- Significantly lower labor time loss index.
- Increase of new contracts by 20% as compared to prior year.
- Higher Return on Investment (ROI).
- Lower turnover rate.
- Talent attraction.
For BlueScope, businesses use the G.R.E.A.T software with effective features, making it easy to check occupational safety at the fieldwork. The easy-to-use G.R.E.A.T software is able to review the entire safety process and interact quickly and directly with the relevant departments.
In order to raise labor safety standards in Vietnam and work towards a work-free construction project, over the past two years, BlueScope has continuously implemented the program “Raising awareness and sharing labor safety and hygiene management experience” in provinces where the Company is located.
