At McConnell Dowell, safety is a non-negotiable principle at the heart of every decision. To strengthen our commitment to a safer, more empowered workforce, we recently modernised our Safety Golden Rule Requirements. This refresh simplifies and reinforces our safety culture through bold new visuals, clear messaging, and digital accessibility tailored to today’s diverse worksites.
The revamped program introduced high-impact signage based on international standards, a mobile-optimised platform for real-time access to safety resources, and a digital booklet for on-the-go reference. Mandatory e-learning ensures everyone understands the changes and their personal role in maintaining safety. Supervisors are now explicitly empowered to stop any unsafe activity without needing approval—highlighting our shift toward individual accountability.
Early results show stronger engagement, better rule retention, and faster access to resources. More importantly, the cultural shift is clear: safety at McConnell Dowell is not just enforced—it’s actively owned by every person, every day.
