12 consecutive months without any accidents at work, and a new training channel for prevention

In October 2014, the first three year cycle came to an end as a certified company with the seal of business excellence in prevention OHSAS 18001. During this same month, and for the first time in MRG’s history, 12 consecutive months went by with no occupational accidents or time off work taken by our own staff, thanks to close collaboration between the different areas of the company, exhaustive training in the field of prevention and the good practices of all staff.

On the other hand, during the first half of 2015, Madrileña delivered the first prevention courses on third-party violence, aimed at all workers who deal directly with the users.

We have put in place a new service for managing and monitoring occupational risk prevention documentation of contracting and subcontracting companies. Currently, there are 67 contracting and subcontracting companies registered, as well as 688 workers. From this platform there are more than 7,500 documents to manage.

Furthermore, the programme of prevention monitoring visits of the activity itself, executed by contractors, has continued over this financial year. During this period, about a hundred visits were made, which allowed us to resolve the incidents detected.

We have also unveiled the new prevention information channel, based on available technologies such as “the cloud”. Among other advantages, this channel provides an environment that is friendly, intuitive, approachable and structured, where you can “dive into” the information on prevention which is always available and which can be directly accessed via the Internet, which will allow access to the information “from the field”, as well as the chance to voluntarily subscribe to the topics and/or updates of documents of interest and be constantly up-to-date.
