In 2023, the mining business in Australia adopted the “Fatal Risk” program, which is an initiative designed to prevent fatalities by implementing effective controls across all tasks. A key component of this program involved the “Fatal Risk Bowtie” workshops, where all critical controls were identified and evaluated for their application and effectiveness.

To facilitate the effective implementation of these controls, the Company developed “Critical Control Verification Dashboards”. These dashboards help to ensure performance effectiveness by providing real-time feedback via a digital platform. The digital reporting provides a clear view of control effectiveness and status at each site. This enables prompt identification of any controls that are failing or not functioning to the standard. As a result, the Company can identify and control the top ten fatal risks. This proactive approach not only enhances safety but also contributes to the overall operational excellence of the facilities.
