Safety & health

Leighton Asia’s successful Strive for L▪I▪F▪E safety programme was born out of a bold vision to effect genuine positive change and a cultural shift towards the elimination of Class 1 incidents.

L▪I▪F▪E stands for Leighton Incident Free Environment and is what we are seeking to achieve.

The programme officially kicked off on 25 November 2009 in Hong Kong and Macau and was subsequently rolled out across Asia with a number of ceremonies and key initiatives.

We set up the Leighton Asia Board Safety Subcommittee and started a site safety inspection process called the Strive for L▪I▪F▪E safety walk. We developed a Safety Leadership Programme to educate our managers and supervisors and put our workforce through Health, Safety and Environment Induction Programmes.

In October 2010, we opened the state-of-the-art Strive for L▪I▪F▪E Knowledge and Skills Training Centre in Hong Kong, where our workers undergo classroom instruction and practical training on our safety standards. By embracing safety as a core value, we actively encourage a safety culture on site.
