Our approach to health and safety is based on the idea of personal obligation and individual empowerment. We believe everyone will return home safely every day, and has a duty, to take care of themselves and those around them.” **Debbie Haines, Group Head of Health & Safety**  ## Staying up-to-date with safety briefs At [RSS Infrastructure](https://www.rssinfrastructure.com/about-rssi/), we monitor all safety briefs that are released to ensure that we can learn from past incidents and take action to increase safety for workers on-site in the future. We understand that every project is unique, and that’s why we create comprehensive safety plans and risk assessments for each project we undertake. ## Our safety record speaks for itself At RSS Infrastructure, we take pride in our safety record.
