Description
Al Yamama is currently managing a large-scale project that spans across multiple sites.
The project employs around 150 personnel, working diligently to ensure the successful
completion of the project. However, the current safety measures in place may not be
sufficient for the scale of operations.
At present, there are only three safety officers overseeing the safety protocols and
procedures across all the sites. Given the size of the workforce and the geographical
spread of the sites, this number is inadequate. The safety officers are stretched thin,
trying to cover all the sites, which could potentially lead to oversight and increased risk
of safety incidents.
To ensure the safety of all employees and the smooth running of operations at all sites,
it is crucial to increase the number of safety officers or provide safety assistants. This
will allow for better supervision, timely response to incidents, and improved safety
training for all employees.

Opportunity
The opportunity scale for increasing the number of safety officers or assistants in the Al
Yamama is substantial. Here are some key points to consider:
1. Enhanced Safety: With more safety personnel on site, the company can ensure
better adherence to safety protocols, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries.
This not only protects the employees but also reduces potential downtime due to
accidents.
2. Improved Compliance: More safety officers can help the company better comply
with local and international safety standards. This can enhance the company’s
reputation and open up opportunities for more projects.
3. Increased Productivity: A safe work environment can boost employee morale
and productivity. When employees feel safe, they are more likely to be focused
and efficient at their jobs.
4. Cost Savings: While hiring more safety personnel involves a cost, it can lead to
significant savings in the long run. The cost associated with workplace accidents
- including medical expenses, legal fees, and loss of work - can be much higher.
5. Employee Retention: Demonstrating a commitment to employee safety can help
in retaining skilled workers. It shows that the company values its employees,
which can lead to higher job satisfaction and lower turnover.
By investing in safety, Al Yamama can not only protect its most valuable asset - its
employees - but also improve its bottom line. It’s an opportunity that has both tangible
and intangible benefits.

Problem/Constraints
Al Yamama is currently managing a large-scale project with a workforce of
approximately 150 personnel spread across multiple sites. The safety of these
employees is of paramount importance. However, the current safety measures in place
may not be sufficient for the scale of operations.
Due to the lack of safety personnels on each site the safety is unable to control the
site HSE requirements and becomes less efficient in handling site HSE related
issues.
The problem lies in the limited number of safety officers - currently only three - who are
responsible for overseeing the safety protocols and procedures across all the sites.
Given the size of the workforce and the geographical spread of the sites, this number is

inadequate. The safety officers are stretched thin, trying to cover all the sites, which
could potentially lead to oversight and increased risk of safety incidents.
The lack of sufficient safety personnel poses a significant risk to the safety of the
employees, the smooth running of operations at all the sites, and the reputation of Al
Yamama. This problem needs immediate attention and resolution to prevent any
potential safety incidents and ensure the well-being of all employees.

Solution/Demand
The solution to address the safety concerns at Al Yamama Company’s project sites
involves increasing the number of safety personnel. Here are the steps that can be
taken:
1. Hire More Safety Officers: Increase the number of safety officers across all sites.
This will ensure better supervision and adherence to safety protocols.
2. Appoint Safety Assistants: If hiring more safety officers is not feasible, consider
appointing safety assistants who can support the safety officers. These assistants
can help in monitoring safety protocols and provide immediate response in case
of incidents.
3. Safety Training: Conduct regular safety training sessions for all employees. This
will not only equip them with knowledge of safety protocols but also foster a
culture of safety within the company.
4. Regular Audits: Carry out regular safety audits to identify potential risks and
address them proactively. This will also help in ensuring compliance with safety
standards.
5. Feedback Mechanism: Establish a feedback mechanism where employees can
report safety concerns. This will help in identifying areas that need immediate
attention.
By implementing these measures, Al Yamama can significantly enhance the safety of its
employees and ensure smooth operations across all project sites. It’s an investment that
will yield positive results in terms of employee safety, productivity, and company
reputation.

Resources
HSE resources include safety equipment, training materials, safety protocols, and
environmental management systems.
Under the supervision of an HSE Manager, these resources are effectively managed and
utilized to ensure a safe and healthy working environment. The HSE Manager oversees
the distribution and use of safety equipment, ensures that all employees are adequately
trained on safety protocols, hence it should be released only with the authorization
of HSE manager.

The HSE Manager also plays a pivotal role in conducting regular safety audits,
identifying potential risks, and implementing corrective measures.
In essence, the effective handling of HSE resources under the supervision of an HSE
Manager is key to maintaining a safe, healthy, and environmentally friendly workplace.

Conclusion
In conclusion, the safety of our employees is a paramount concern that requires
immediate attention. The current number of safety officers is insufficient to effectively
manage and oversee the safety protocols across all our project sites. This not only poses
a risk to the safety of our employees but also impacts the smooth operation of our
projects.
We propose to increase the number of safety officers or appoint safety assistants at each
site. This will ensure better supervision, timely response to incidents, and improved
safety training for all employees. Regular safety audits and a feedback mechanism can
further enhance our safety measures.
The potential benefits - enhanced safety, improved compliance, increased productivity,
cost savings, and employee retention - make it a worthwhile investment.
We kindly request the management to consider this proposal and take necessary steps
to implement these measures. By doing so, we can ensure a safer working environment
for our employees and contribute to the successful completion of our projects.
