      Laing O'Rourke > System Updates
      One of the Next Gear tactics is to Focus on High Consequence Risks. The foundation of this tactic is Fatal and Severe Risks (FSRs). A FSR is an activity that is considered to have high consequences to our people if not managed appropriately. The FSR Controls Standard provides clear guidance to managing these risks. Each FSR has a set of critical controls that must be planned for, implemented and monitored. The FSR Control Adequacy Assessment Tool assists with this process. It is also used to conduct FSR reviews.
      Part of the review process includes projects and sites undertaking field based observations to ensure that the required FSR critical controls are demonstrated to be working effectively. FSR Critical Control Field Checks assist with this process and are accessible via QR codes in the field. The FSRs are underpinned by Primary Standards (PS). FSR critical controls are included in Primary Standards as well as additional information local controls (i.e. controls that must be implemented to manage risk but are not critical to preventing a high consequence).

    • Rail Safety Management System
      Laing O'Rourke > System Updates
      Rail Safety Management System The Rail Safety Management System is supported by the LOR Safety Management System for Railway Operations which is an overview of the criteria contained within the SMS.  TheRail-Safety-Managment-Plan template which is the plan that projects should use to set out how they will apply each of the 29 elements, many of which may be through systems of the network owner.
       
  • Environmental
    • Severe Environmental Risks (SERs)
      A Severe Environmental Risk (SER) is an activity if not managed appropriately, a severe environmental impacts could eventuate, resulting in permanent or long term damage to the environment that could not be easily rectified. They would alter receiving environment and result in a significant impact on the project’s objectives. The SER Controls Standard provides clear guidance to managing these risks. Each SER provides clear guidance on the requirements and control measures that when implemented are intended to manage these risks. They describe the critical controls that must be in place, demonstrated and working effectively such that severe environmental impacts are prevented. The SER Control Adequacy Assessment Tool assists with this process. It is also used to conduct SER reviews.

    • Environmental Primary Standards
      Environmental Primary Standards (PS) provide the framework for the organisation to manage risk as well as create opportunity for innovation.  Each Primary Standard is designed to eliminate or minimise the risks of environmental harm arising from a specific risk as well as enhancing environmental benefits.   A number of PSs underpin associated Severe Environmental Risks (SERs) (insert link). SER critical controls are included in Environmental Primary Standards as well as additional information local controls (i.e. controls that must be implemented to manage risk but are not critical to preventing a high consequence).
      Environmental Primary Standards are developed with reference to (and to meet) legislative requirements along with examples of how the hierarchy of control is to be applied in real terms. Application of the Environmental Primary Standards as per their intent should provide the project sufficient assurance that the hierarchy of controls is applied and that legislative requirements are met. Project/site environment management plans specify how the Environmental Primary Standards are specifically implemented at the respective project or site.
    • Environmental System Requirements
      Environmental System Requirements (SR) describe the processes that must be implemented in order to set up projects and sites for success. They fall into two broad categories: Organisation and Engagement system requirements – ensure the organisation is capable to operate within its intended operating environment and to establish projects and sites for successful delivery and operations with regards to their environmental risk profile.
      Assurance and Event Management system requirements – ensure the organisation undertakes assurance and compliance activities as part of a thorough due diligence process to encourage and foster continual improvement and innovation; and is able to respond appropriately to unplanned events
