Commenced role with BHP Billiton as HSE Manager for ODP1 Infrastructure. The ODP1 project is the first phase of the Open Pit operation establishment and the Infrastructure team is responsible for the establishment of the infrastructure required to support the Open Pit operation during construction and into the early stages of production. The project Definition Phase Study (DPS) was successfully completed in May 2012 and pre-commitment funding to begin establishment of early site works and purchase of long lead plant and equipment commenced in September 2011. Commencement of early site works establishment whilst at the same time finalising the DPS has meant that the project has been very dynamic which has presented many challenges for BHP Billiton and Contracting Partners in terms of health, safety and environment performance. Despite this the Infrastructure team including all Contracting Partners achieved one year recordable injury free in the first 12 months of site execution work during a period when HSE systems are not fully bedded down and hundreds of new personnel were mobilising to site. This has been achieved through the commitment and planning of both the Owners Team and the Contracting Partners supported by best practices in the areas of training, competency verification, leadership accountability, cognitive behavioural safety program for all project personnel, including short term workers, risk assessment and critical control implementation, positive safety observation program, senior management field safety engagement program and audit verification programs.
