Safety Promotion at any work site need to be continue and the most effective tool to create safe work culture among site workers is by continuously managing the safety training, such as managing the daily tool box talk, daily safety walkabout, inspection, auditing, safety brainstorming, safety risk assessments by competent risk assessor and safety training (internal or external).

To start with, all site management need to understand how important is in managing the daily Tool Box Talk at our work site.

Total Safety Management (TSM) should merged with Total Quality Management (TQM) and Total Preventive Maintenance (TPM) to reach our maximum client satisfaction and to be part in the global market.

We are a fast track project expertise and of course time frame is very important in able us to deliver good and quality product. Site management staffs and contractors involved need to be result orientated with a very high discipline working performance.

The most effective tool to adopt the understanding is by maximizing our actual working ability to problem-solve, identifying priority items, ability in rectifying quality product, trouble-shoot quality defect, self-discipline, self core value and etc.

Promoting self-discipline to your site management staffs and contractors is very important to enable them execute the daily job according to their actual working professionalism.
