Valuing Safety
At Fluor, successfully managing health, safety and environmental (HSE) issues to the lowest possible risk levels is integral to the way we do business. We continue to be recognized as one of the safest contractors in the engineering and construction industry, and we thoroughly evaluate any incidents – including near misses – that occur to immediately identify areas for improvement.
We analyze both actual severity and potential severity, or “what could have happened,” in all HSE incidents to prevent recurrences and issue HSE alerts to promote learning throughout the organization.
Performance
A company-wide U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standard guides our measurement and reporting process regardless of work location. This includes OSHA guidance on reporting COVID-19 cases.
In 2023, our workforce reported a total of 407 recordable incidents; 155 of which threatened serious injury, fatality or damage; seven of which resulted in life-altering injuries; and one that tragically resulted in a fatality. A joint venture employee died when he was struck by heavy motorized equipment. Finger amputations were our most significant high-severity injuries in 2023.
Total case incident rate, self-perform and subcontractor.
The self-perform and subcontractor work hours executed by our offices and in the field in 2023 resulted in a Total Case Incident Rate (TCIR) of 0.29 versus the industry average of 0.90 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data for construction companies with more than 1,000 employees).
Days away, restricted or transferred, self-perform and subcontractor
We had a combined Days Away, Restricted or Transferred (DART) workday case rate of 0.15 versus the industry average of 0.60 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data for construction companies with more than 1,000 employees).
Improvements Through Audits
Our HSE audit program allows leadership to measure site leading indicator performance and presents them with tangible opportunities to identify and prioritize areas for improvement.
In 2023, we completed a total of 81 corporate HSE audits. The 38 general worksite audits received an average score of 93.03%; the 22 Life Critical℠ audits received an average score of 93.89%; and the 21 office audits scored 94.91%, bettering our goal of 90%.
In 2022, we added a behavioral/culture section to the audit tool to capture engagement, goals, values, trust, resilience and other indicators of a healthy safety culture.
