HSE Fundamentals
Safe Operations Verification
Precision employees assess hazards and ensure controls are in place to mitigate risk before the work starts. We execute to the plan, and if things change we stop and reassess. When the work is done we learn from our successes and our challenges. Every job, every task.
Risk and Hazard Assessment
Thorough risk assessment is key to identifying the proper controls to reduce risk. That’s why Precision utilizes our simple, yet comprehensive, Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM) to evaluate risks and threats to people, property, and the environment.
Observation and Hazard Identification
Precision proactively drives safe work behaviors and correction of unsafe acts and conditions through our structured Safety Observation Program.
Stop Work and Step Back
All Precision employees are empowered and expected to stop work if the operation is not proceeding to plan, additional hazards are identified or not understood, or if something simply does not feel right. A structured Step Back discussion is then utilized to assess new and existing hazards before the work may proceed.
Observation and Hazard Identification
Proactive employee-to-employee engagements around safe work practices cultivate the learning, interdependent culture that leads to the highest levels of performance and safety.
Management of Change
Strong change management allows us to design safer equipment and processes by identifying and controlling potential risks in the design and review phase.
Critical Controls and Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF)
We focus on identifying the potential incidents that pose the greatest risk, enabling us to drive the control measures that prevent them.
