Safer Working for Everyone
Knowing your crews are following best practice is essential to keeping them safe. However, traditional in-person inspections are labour-intensive and unlikely to show the real situation. This is where our Safer Working Programme can help you make lasting, positive change to how your crews operate.
Bartec’s Safer Working Programme is designed to revolutionise your waste collection operations. By leveraging advanced technology and industry expertise, we provide a comprehensive solution to enhance safety and efficiency.
Our programme offers a range of benefits, including:
- Real-time Monitoring: Continuous tracking of vehicle operations to identify potential hazards.
- Data-driven Insights: Detailed analysis to inform decision-making and improve performance.
- Best Practice Implementation: Ensuring adherence to industry standards and regulations.
- Reduced Risk: Minimising accidents and near-miss incidents through proactive measures.
Prioritise Safety and Elevate Your Waste Operations
The programme is delivered in four phases – starting with an assessment of your current practice and compliance. This is followed by a rapid phase of action and improvement aimed at delivering real benefits in a matter of weeks. In the monitoring phase our safety professionals remotely monitor each of your crews as they work, using onboard video and telematics to efficiently audit crew behaviour. You will receive ongoing support from our team throughout each phase.
Each audit creates a permanent record of good practice and areas for improvement, with regular progress reviews provided every three months.
This risk-based system identifies the strengths and weaknesses in your working practices, aligning day-to-day behaviour with your policies and continually seeking industry best practice. The result is improved compliance, reduced lost-time incidents and a safer working environment for everyone.
Enhanced Crew Safety
Your waste collection crews work in demanding conditions, often facing hazardous situations and tight deadlines. This can lead to risky behaviours and increased accident rates.
Our Safer Working Programme helps you:
Identify Hidden Risks: Uncover potential hazards that may go unnoticed.
Promote Safe Practices: Encourage safe work habits and discourage shortcuts.
Improve Safety Culture: Foster a positive safety mindset within your workforce.
Reduce Accidents and Injuries: Minimise the risk of workplace accidents and injuries.
Safer Working Audits don’t just highlight bad practice. They reinforce good practice, inform future decisions and spark conversations which continually improve safety. By investing in your crew’s safety, you’re not only fulfilling your legal obligations but also demonstrating your commitment to their well-being.
Upgrade Your Fleet Safety with Bartec
Safer Working Audits are available for cameras from Contel, FleetClear, Vision Techniques, VisionTrack and Brigade, with other equipment being added frequently.
Don’t have over-the-air video equipment? No problem.
Our Safer Working Programme can still help you improve safety, even with traditional harddrive recording systems. We can start with an initial assessment and action plan, and then seamlessly transition to full remote monitoring once you’re ready to invest in over-the-air technology.
Getting Started
You can take the service via the GCloud 14 framework or other frameworks. Our experts in safe collections will talk you through the process of improving safety whilst our tech team connects your existing camera and telematics systems to our Control Centre.
Our team will work with you to agree the content of the audits and ensure they match your policies. We will also suggest policy changes to align with industry best practice and legislation.
Our Safer Working Programme team will provide ongoing support throughout the entire programme.
- Assess: Set up the programme and conduct an initial audit of working practices. After a few weeks we will deliver a full report of findings and recommendations.
- Act: Consult internally about the findings and implement improvements. We will use this to measure progress.
- Monitor: Embed safe working into your culture, with permanent, regular monitoring of working practices and compliance with policies.
- Review: Our team will formally report every 3 months on your progress towards Safer Working.
