Kolkata, Apr 28 (IBNS) In the continuing thrusts to ensure safety, Durgapur Steel Plant (DSP) has undertaken several initiatives for strengthening the safety measures inside the plant.

 In an exclusive meeting with the Departmental Safety Officers (DSOs), safety department officials and senior officials, P K Singh, CEO, DSP reviewed the safety measures and gave renewed thrusts on implementing safety measures and also strengthening safety awareness all across the plant.

“Along with creating continuous awareness, renewed focus is being given to enforce people to adopt safety practices at the workplaces. After all any accident is a great loss to the person, family, plant and the nation as whole”, said P K Singh, CEO, DSP.

With the focus on road safety, gas safety and safety in projects & contract jobs, several priorities were firmed up to beef up safety measures in the plant.

It included strict enforcement of speed limits of vehicles, monitoring of gas pipelines, introduction of more numbers of gas detection systems, enforcing use of full body harness and nets for jobs at height, better barricading at the sites of deep excavations, more illumination at project sites, among others.

The workers for the contract jobs are given rigorous safety training before issuance of gate passes.
