Pre-employment Program
Just one example of our practical,
proven programs, is the award-winning
Thiess Pre-employment Program,
boasting an innovative model that seeks
to improve a number of outcomes for
participants from 17 years of age.
The 20-week program is built on a
foundation of collaboration between
partners, including employers, training
and service providers, mentors, and
state and federal agencies. The program
aims to equip participants with the
technical, work and life skills to take on
an apprenticeship or other employment.
In partnership with Hastings Deering,
the program is delivered to 12-14
participants over 20 weeks. Piloted
in 2010, the program is now into its
fourth year and has evolved to be a
very popular pathway option for those
seeking apprenticeships or employment
in construction and mining.

We have delivered
tangible results
in the reduction
of incidents.
This focus on audits, systems
performance and corrective
actions required a relentless drive
from senior management and our
operational teams on every project.
Importantly, it has led to a renewed
focus on understanding our systems
and working to deliver improvements
before incidents occur.
This effort has delivered tangible
results in the reduction of incidents.
Thiess recorded a RIFR of 4.6 the
lowest in its history representing
an impressive 34 per cent reduction
in the RIFR and overall RIs. This is a
huge step toward our objective of

ENFORCEABLE
UNDERTAKINGS
Enforceable undertakings are available
to organisations as an alternative to
prosecution for breaches of safety
regulations. Thiess entered into two
enforceable undertakings in 2012.
The first relates to two similar safety
incidents that occurred in October
2006 on the EastLink Project. These
involved precast noise walls falling from
a delivery truck when the load restraint
system failed. The undertaking with
WorkSafe Victoria requires Thiess and
our joint venture partner John Holland to
carry out research on the selection and
management of specialist contractors,
review and revise our contractor selection
and management processes, and
distribute guidance and training materials
produced as a result of the research.
The second undertaking was entered
into with Workplace Health and Safety
Queensland as a result of an Airport Link
incident in March 2011. This involved a
subcontractor traffic controller being run
over by a truck, resulting in serious injuries.
This undertaking requires Thiess to:
LEADERSHIP
Navigating the complexities of safety
management systems and safety
performance reporting takes time and
practice, but these are essential skills
for leaders to excel in safety. We are
investing in safety leadership by building
capability at all levels of management and
supervision. Through the Leading Safety at
Thiess program, managers and supervisors
spend two days examining their safety
accountabilities and personal behaviours.
This expands their safety knowledge
and assists in developing effective
communication skills to boost their
leadership capacity. It is a prerequisite for
operational leadership roles within Thiess.
The emphasis is heavily geared toward
communication and reinforces the
importance of equipping our safety
leaders with the techniques and
confidence to constructively engage with
their teams. The program also provides
our safety leaders with the skills needed to
intervene in, and resolve, unsafe situations,
recognise and reward positive safety
behaviours, and motivate teams to stay
involved in our safety efforts.
Targets for individual managers and
supervisors emphasise expected
behaviours and aspirations rather
than simply counting failures via the
measurement of incidents. We are leading
this endeavour from the top. Members of
the Executive Team have adopted personal
targets for the completion of safety
critical activities such as system audits,
Critical Risk Control audits, and the timely
close-out of incident investigations and
corrective actions. In addition, they make
regular, scheduled visits to our worksites to
listen and understand the safety concerns
of our workforce and to recognise and
celebrate their safety initiatives.
EXPECTATIONS AND
ACCOUNTABILITIES
Quarterly in-depth reviews of safety
performance in our businesses
are proving invaluable in setting
clear expectations and clarifying
accountabilities for safety management.
These safety contract valuations (CVs)
are run by our Managing Director and
involve the Executive General Manager
ofeach business.
During the executive safety reviews,
performance against agreed lead safety
indicators are examined to ensure
our safety management processes
28
WORKFORCE ENGAGEMENT
Developing effective safety leaders is critical
to engaging with our workforce. The simple
techniques we promote, based on a culture
of openness, create opportunities for our
leaders to listen to our workers concerns
and their ideas for improving safety.
In 2012, our construction, mining and
services businesses established Everyone
Safe, Everyday Awards, recognising
positive contributions to building our
safety culture through risk management,
compliance, speaking up about safety
and getting involved. The awards carry
significant prizes for individuals as
well as charity donations to motivate
individuals and teams to participate.
The monthly project-based awards build
toward wider recognition within each
of our three businesses (construction,
mining and services). An annual wholeof-company award is then drawn from the
pool of monthly winners to highlight the
most significant contribution in the year.
CULTURE
Throughout 2012, our team has reviewed
the strategies and benefits of more than
40companies who have, like Thiess, adopted
the United Kingdoms Keil Centre safety
culture framework. Companies making
the most progress in terms of behavioural
change and RI reductions have a highly
disciplined approach to regularly assessing
gaps in expected behaviours and developing
action plans to close those gaps. Most
importantly, they are regularly measuring
their performance in line with these plans.

Safety support

The City East Cable Tunnel team in
New South Wales took an innovative
step to increase the safety of working
underground. A Temporary Roof Support
(TRS) was created to remove the risk
of personnel entering areas beneath
unsupported ground otherwise a
no-entry situation. The nature of
tunnelling means that team members

NGER
Energy use and emissions data is
collected for all company projects and
sites irrespective of the operational
control status. Thiess reports annually
under the NGER Act through Leighton
Holdings. In the 2011-2012 NGER reporting
period, Thiess had operational control
over 85 of its 167 operating facilities.
EEO
The EEO Act requires large energy
users to identify, assess and report on
energy saving opportunities. Thiess
triggered the reporting threshold
on the basis of its energy use in the
20052006 baseline year. Further
information on the first EEO assessment
cycle is available from the Thiess EEO
Public Report available at http://
www.thiess.com.au/environmentalreports/energy-efficiency-reports.
Thiess EEO Assessment Plan for the
second EEO Cycle (July 2011 to June
2016) was submitted to the Department
of Resources, Energy and Tourism in
2012. This plan covers projects over
which Thiess has operational control,
as required by the EEO Regulation.
In 2012, Thiess also introduced an internal

CARE PROGRAM
In April 2012, Thiess launched its new
social responsibility program Care.
This program builds on the companys
already strong and generous culture
of giving back. It encompasses six
programs: charity partnerships,
fundraising and donations; workplace
giving; volunteer leave; community
grants; disaster relief funding;
andIndigenous engagement.
Care provides a framework
for company-wide community
investment, and bolsters governance
and guidelines around our
partnerships, charitable donations,
in-kind support and other types of
assistance. Company-wide efforts are
focused on the areas of education,
environment and health, in addition
toensuring that our communities
receive lasting value from our support
and contribution.
In line with our three focus areas,
Thiess announced its support of three
corporate charities the Royal Flying
Doctor Service (health), International
RiverFoundation (environment)
and The Engineering Link Group
(education). These corporate
charities are in addition to long-term
partnerships the companys business
units have with community groups in
their local regions.
