Stop the Drop 2022 Protos

Over the course of this month, Shoal "safety in numbers" have been delivering a ‘Stop The Drop’ campaign in partnership with Covanta, METKA & Standardkessel Baumgarte GmbH at the Protos ERF site located in Chester.

The latest statistics from HSE’s Riddor Report 2019/20 show that dropped objects still rank in the top 3 of the UK’s workplace killers. 

Falling objects also accounted for over 7,000 reported non-fatal injuries, with over 75% of them resulting in LTI’s (lost time injuries). 

Today, no one deserves to be exposed to the risk of falling tools and equipment at work, therefore, to bring the campaign to light Shoal will introduce carefully selected material that can be published through various mediums to our targeted audience providing knowledge, insight and exposure to the topic of Dropped Object prevention. 

We will look to achieve complete culture buy in, not through blood and broken bones, but through innovation, information and solutions that make work safer.

Custom designed Media, including signage, posters, artwork and banners published throughout the project and welfare in key message areas. A bespoke all-encompassing awareness campaign which will leave the participants with a set of behaviours and awareness around dropped objects where they can make an impact to stopping dropped objects for good. 

We will explore the prevention in design and methodology techniques, and have teamed up with industry tool tethering and dropped object experts Never Let Go to look at innovative ideas and solutions aimed at maximising workforce, supervision, management and stakeholder engagement.

Training carried out by our specialist team of industry experts backed up by behavioural based DROPS coaching programs by BE ENGAGED SAFETY in a teach not tell format will make this truly remarkable experience for all involved.

Wish us all the best of luck and encouragement…

STOP THE DROP!
