Zero Harm Values & Vision
Qatar Rail’s vision for Zero Harm is to ‘prevent injury and ill-health to all of our staff, programme partners, members of the general public and our customers’.
Our ethos is that that “health and safety is to be foremost in everything that we do” and that “everyone has the right to go home safely and without any injuries or ill health at the end of each day”.
Towards a Safer Future
Safe Today – Safer Tomorrow
Zero Harm Beliefs Our guiding principles for achieving Zero Harm include:
• Health and safety are values that shall not be compromised
• We truly believe that all accidents are preventable
• Health and safety must be led from the top, down
• Everyone has a responsibility for their own health and safety and that of others
• Positive behaviours are to be reinforced and negative behaviours are to be challenged
• Hazards that pose a risk to health, safety are unacceptable and shall be mitigated and reduced
• Everyone has the ‘right to STOP’ work’ or to stop others from working if it is unsafe, without fear of any action or consequences being taken against that person
