Spotlight

APAC Insider as the name of the Pole magazine Our brand new magazine got its name thanks to you and your votes via the 2 polls launched initially in mid July for the request for propositions and in September for the choice among the top 3. APAC Insider was ahead of the curve against Mag.A.Pac and Go! APAC. There was a wide range of creative propositions from Sanskrit to Gaelic and Latin inspirations, from slang to technical jargon, and from evocative to witty acronyms. It reflects well on the various roots and diversity of cultures and people of the Pole. APAC Insider was coined by Pranam Sudhir, Chief Financial Officer at Wah Loon. Pranam joined VINCI Energies 10 years ago and built up his path in France before moving to Singapore as one of the pioneers of the Pole in 2014. First at the head office of VE APAC with many missions at Vasundhara for the integration of the Indian Perimeter, he joined Wah Loon 3 years ago to accompany the integration of the Singaporean-Malaysian Perimeter. Pranam, a genuine APAC Insider! ¡

Safety shared learning Our safety journey is one that never ends, as we are constantly learning from the experiences we have and the work we do today, to try to ensure that tomorrow is safer for all of us. For that reason, one of the 6 Safety Pillars is ‘Shared Learning’, which is focused on ensuring that we share our learnings from Robert Ferris safety incidents, including Near Misses Electrix NZ managing director when no one was harmed, so that others pole safety sponsor can learn from those experiences and avoid the same unsafe experience. In some Near Miss incidents, it is only because of ‘good luck’ that noone was seriously injured, and we know we cannot manage good safety performance based on ‘good luck’. We need to learn from these ‘lucky’ incidents so that we can modify our procedures and job planning to ensure a safe outcome in the future. Sometimes a Near Miss may appear minor in nature and employees may think it is not worth reporting. However, those type of minor Near Miss events may actually be quite common, but if they are not reported, then nothing will be done about them. Reporting them allows us to build up a database on incident types, which allows us to better understand what is happening on our work sites, and again, to take appropriate steps to prevent these events from happening. Near Miss reporting is a measure of the Safety Culture of an organization, as employees must be confident that the organization will not focus on blame and punishment, but rather value that an employee has taken the time to report it and the learning opportunity that creates. At VINCI Energies, we greatly value employees reporting Near Misses, and in particular High Potential Events when someone could have been seriously harmed, so that we can share these learnings across the group to achieve our goal of Home Without Harm, Everyone, Everyday. In this edition of the Pole magazine you will find examples of incident reports from across our Pole, which demonstrate our strong reporting culture and the value we place on that. ¡
