Summer of Safety 2025

D4C are dedicated to promoting safety awareness and practices during the summer season.

PURPOSE OF THE CAMPAIGN

SUMMER OF SAFETY

The purpose of the 'Summer of Safety' campaign is to:

Deliver an important safety messaging in an engaging, relatable and memorable way by linking beach safety to site safety.

Reinforce in a fresh way the importance of safety awareness and preparedness, as we approach the end-of-year period, a statistically higher-risk time for incidents and injuries to occur.

Support a well-planned operational shutdown and restart, while encouraging our people to take a safe and well-earned break.

Incorporate Quality, Environment, and Wellbeing content to promote a holistic approach to the key theme of “ride the wave, not the risk”.

Promote the idea of building momentum for working safely before and after the shutdown.

THIS YEARS THEME

SAFETY IN THE SUMMER TIME

This year we have a “Bondi Rescue” theme linking beach to site safety with slogan “Ride the wave, not the risk” which introduces the idea of a need to work together to achieve a safe successful workplace over the summer and continuing months.

There will be six key messages delivered, one for each week of week of the campaign:

WEEK 1 - Hazard awareness
WEEK 2 - Teamwork and communication
WEEK 3 - Preparation and prevention
WEEK 4 - Pre-shutdown recap
WEEK 5 - Training and skills
WEEK 6 - Emergency response
WEEK 7 - Public safety and wellbeing

These will be delivered through 15-minute Weekly toolboxes delivered across all project sites with support onsite from senior leadership and functional leads.

The campaign will officially launch on 27th November at the End of Year Function, featuring the premiere of the campaign video and a presentation from guest speaker “Harries” from Bondi Rescue.
