Heading home from up the NW

[CINDERS]

Looking at our red dirt from plenty thousands of feet from the charter jet not sure being home is good for the bones sitting in @22 Celcius after working during the day at 43 Celcius then at night at 27-30 Celcius.

No it is good to be home again and sitting in my sulk room.........

Yeah the Ol' Bird trick I am employed p/time by a small contractor who looks after safety at Gold Mines, he has just picked up another mine in Telfer sending up 3 Specialist Safety Advisors up there 1 x Confined Space, 1 x Working at Heights and my self doing Cranes & Scaffolding we look after them and hold conversations when/where its warranted we all do general safety as well.
We are not hated like we were 4-5 years ago but are looked upon a bit like a 5th wheel trying to get people to think as procedures, JSA's, Take 5's etc are fine but its the lowest denominator the human factor that 8-9/10 is the basic cause whether through fatigue/peer pressure or sloppy work habits that ultimately see us conducting an ICAM.

We had the permanent crew who work there normaly (@1000) then us contractors 700 workers split in 2 x 12 shifts on an 11 day shut which equated to 92,400 man hours with only 1 level - 2 incident a rigger getting his index finger squished a bit just a steri strip & band aid and 1 near miss so all in all considering the interfacing of work crews on a running plant on a small site as a fairly good outcome.
