2. CRL Health, Safety and Environment: Contractors and Industry Partners Standard

CRL aspires to build Crossrail in a way that achieves a zero accident culture across the Programme. The core drivers of this philosophy are that CRL employees and all organisations working directly for CRL or under the control of the Project Delivery Partner (Crossrail Central) shall:

• give training that will allow employees in positions of leadership to positively reinforce safe behaviours that prevent injuries, and to coach / discuss at-risk behaviours that can contribute to injuries or incidents
• have training programmes in place to ensure that employees are competent to understand the risk controls and behaviours expected to undertake the tasks they are doing; and
• commit sufficient resources to fully support the zero accident philosophy.

The CRL Health Safety and Environment: Contractors and Industry Partners Standard sets the health and safety related framework and mandated Standards that apply to the supply chain engaged on the project. The document is also intended for use as reference by Industry Partners and Stakeholders in helping set benchmarks for health and safety activity.
