The Chair of the MPA Lime Health and Safety Working Group and the Director of MPA Lime took part in the annual Safety Seminar of the European Lime Association (EuLA) held in Lisbon on the 4th and 5th of November. As well as the expected information exchange and consideration of the work of the EuLA Safety Task Force, the seminar included workshop sessions on Coaching Leadership and Team Skills, Energy Isolation and Truck Driver Safety which enabled the international sharing of innovation and best practices in these areas. There were numerous learnings as takeaways from this well organised event, as well as challenges to conventional thinking in how to encourage a step change in safety, to drive up the levels of performance and get much closer to the objective of zero harm.
