Employee intervention system

Sistema de Intervención de los Empleados

El Sistema de intervención de empleados (EIS por sus siglas en inglés) fue desarrollado para detener los accidentes antes de que ocurran. Un proceso proactivo, basado en el comportamiento, EIS ayuda a prevenir malas decisiones en el proceso de reconocimiento y control de riesgos. Este proceso identifica los potenciales riesgos asociados con el medio ambiente, los proyectos y las prácticas de trabajo, lo que nos permite anticipar y prevenir accidentes formando los empleados en el sentido de conductas correctas. Mediante EIS, los empleados están autorizados y obligados a dejar de trabajar cada vez que consideren que existen condiciones de riesgo. Este programa orientado hacia los empleados nos permite tener una seguridad puntera mediante una mejora continúa.

Supervisor observation system

Sistema de Observación del Supervisor

El sistema de observación del supervisor (SOS por sus siglas en inglés) utiliza la observación y la revisión entre homólogos para permitir el desarrollo de una participación proactiva, responsable y de liderazgo positivo a nivel de supervisión.

Management safety reviews

Revisiones de la Gestión de la Seguridad

Las revisiones de gestión de seguridad (MSRs por sus siglas en inglés) contribuyen a que la dirección se comprometa a desarrollar y a promover el liderazgo en seguridad en el sector. Como parte del sistema EHS de BrandSafway, este instrumento interactivo requiere que los gestores hagan observaciones in situ, alentando una comprensión profunda de los procesos de seguridad en el sector.

Gold link audit system

Sistema de Auditoría Gold Link

El sistema de auditoría Gold Link de BrandSafway es una evaluación interna, profunda y a varios niveles del sistema y de los procesos de gestión de seguridad. Mediante la inspección, entrevista y revisión de documentación, las tareas están asignadas y delegadas a las partes responsables, realizando posteriormente un seguimiento de las mismas.
