WSHE Policy, Mission and Target
WSHE Policy
• SAFETY is viewed as the First Consideration in All Our Operations.
• Identify, eliminate, minimise or manage all WSHE risks in all our
operations through Effective Risk Management.
Our Vision & Mission

• We aim for “Zero Harm” and “Promote the Well-
being” of Everyone.
• No Injury is too small and One Injury is one too many.
• Every person on project has the responsibility and is
empowered to take actions on issues of SAFETY.
• STEC will adopt “S – H – G” to sustain the WSH
Excellence in all projects. 6

2. Managing Lifting Safety

Lifting Operation
• The use of cranes to lift and move heavy objects is a

crucial and common activity in many industries such
as construction, ship-building, ship-repairing or
manufacturing process.
• Every lift carries a set of risks that needs to be
managed in order to prevent an accident from
occurring.
• Unsafe lifting operations can result in catastrophic
outcomes involving multiple fatalities and serious
injuries as well as extensive damage to properties and
facilities.
8

Routine versus Non-routine Lifts
Routine Lift
• A lift can be categorised as A Routine Lift if it is repetitive in nature and
involves loads that are similar in shape, size and weight, (i.e., multiple lifts of
similar items).
Non-Routine Lift
• A Non-routine Lift refers to lifting operation that is complex, carried out for
the first time or lifting close to the lifting capacity of the crane. For example,
a tandem “Tilt-up” Operation (i.e., lifting using two or more cranes to tilt a
long structure from horizontal position to vertical) is a complex non-routine
lift.
• Based on past experiences, most crane accidents happened during a routine
lift rather than a non-routine lift.

PLAN
Mobilization / Demobilization
1. Inspection of Crane before Entering Site:
• Thorough mechanical and structural checks were conducted before the crane could
enter the site;
• Load charts and any other safety related notices in the cabin of the crane were
ensured to be in English.
20

PLAN
Crane Assembly & Set-up
1. Erection Of Machine:
• Only Approved crane contractors and approved erectors are allowed
to conduct any Assembly & Set-up.
• Approved Crane Contractor (ACC) cert, Service / Maintenance
Reports & Insurance Certificates required.
2. Load Radius Indicator (LRI):

• Bypass switch for LRI secured by a lock and key and kept with the
Lifting Supervisor.
• LRI was calibrated on a 6-monthly basis by an approved agency
3. Data Logger:
• Data recorded by the data loggers were monitored, downloaded
and interpreted on a monthly basis and submitted in the form of a
report
