Safe Together
Safe Together underpins what SWGR's safety intent is.
Award finalists
We obsess on making sure that we look out for each other, that we care for each other and that each and every one of us arrives home safely every day.
Our range of initiatives, as part of our Safe Together campaign, intensely emphasise how safety is embedded within our DNA.
Protecting our colleagues
We are unwavering in our dedication to workplace safety, constantly reviewing anything that could pose a risk to health and safety both on site and remotely.
Protecting everyone
Making a change in the rail industry is about collaboration – working together for the good of everyone.
That’s why we are taking our approach to health and mental wellbeing seriously.
Our health, safety and mental wellbeing units have completed thousands of health checks on the frontline to not only SWGR colleagues, but our supply chain partners and our customers too.
Effectively managing fatigue
Fatigue is a huge contributor to accidents and incidents occurring in the rail industry. That’s why SWGR takes the fatigue management of all its colleagues very seriously.
We’ve put intense systems in place to make sure all who represent SWGR are looked after. From telematics reports for our fleet, through to safety audits before a shift starts, we are doing everything we can to make sure fatigue is not a factor in any part of our frontline colleagues’ working day.
Training to enhance behaviour and encourage leadership
Behaviour has a huge impact on safety. SWGR has invested in a Human Behavioural Academy, arming frontline teams with the knowledge and skills to identify behaviours and act accordingly — one of many ways we lead from the frontline and promote leadership throughout the business.
“We strive to work to the highest health and safety standards – continually improving how we operate to ensure everyone arrives home safely, every day.”
