Health & Safety
Stanton Bonna staff support charity while ensuring safety
Since 2008 when the Near Miss Hazard Alert (NMHA) scheme began at Stanton Bonna the reduction in accidents and incidents has been phenomenal – they have reduced by over 90%!! Which is good but it can be better - our aim is to get to ZERO HARM.
The NMHA initiative engages the whole workforce. It encourages the 150 employees to complete a NMHA card to inform the Health & Safety Department of a potential near miss or hazard. Examples include unsafe equipment, regular spills and unsafe practices - appropriate actions or new procedures can then be put in place.
Stanton Bonna donates £1 to a designated charity for each card submitted. This year the Health & Safety Committee, which includes management and staff representatives, selected the charity Help for Heroes.
A total of 408 cards were submitted so £408 was presented to Paula Allen, the Derbyshire county coordinator from Help for Heroes. (Picture: Paula Allen from Help for Heroes receiving donation from Inderpal Babra, (Health, Safety & Environmental Manager at Stanton Bonna.)
She said “Congratulations to everyone for a massive reduction in NMHA related incidents. We would like to say a massive thank you for choosing to donate funds to Help for Heroes. Without the efforts of fundraisers and donations it would not be possible to inspire, enable and support our wounded, injured and sick service personnel, veterans and their families. This is something the charity has pledged to do for life and it would be impossible to continue without your generosity.
The funds raised will make a significant difference to many lives, which could be through our sports recovery programme, hidden wounds project, recovery centres, individual grants or our quick reaction fund.
I wish you ever success in reaching your goal of zero harm in the NMHA scheme and thank you all once again.”
As a reward for submitting the cards staff is automatically entered into a free prize draw. Each month a winner is drawn for a prize of £25 worth of vouchers. Then once a year all those who have entered cards in at least 4 months out of the previous 12 are automatically entered into the annual draw. This year’s draw took place on 30th June and the winners were selected by Paula.
