Committed to safety, Oyu Tolgoi delivers 2 million man-hours LTI free

A strong safety culture, dedicated site leadership and hard work has seen Thiess’ team at Oyu Tolgoi achieve 2 million man-hours LTI free.

Early last year the team proudly celebrated 1 million man-hours LTI free, and were committed to keeping this safety trend going. Rallying together they embedded key themes from our Group One HSE Culture framework including risk management, standards, communication and involvement.

Paul Miles, Thiess Oyu Tolgoi Project Manager, is proud of the team for achieving this important safety milestone.

“Our focus now turns towards the future and a strategy has been developed to reinvigorate our efforts.

“The March to 3 million campaign has been developed to ensure we maintain our focus and stretch ourselves to be better at what we do, striving to keep everyone safe every day.”

This is an impressive safety achievement given the unique challenges of the project including remoteness, climatic extremes, language and translation, cultural differences and the complexity of constructing the declines.

Congratulations to everyone involved in achieving this great result!
