Safety One Step Ahead – Electra FM’s Proactive Revolution

In a world where operational excellence and safety go hand in hand, Electra FM is driving a transformative change in organizational safety culture. This year, as in previous years, began with a comprehensive safety meeting involving company management. However, this year introduced a pivotal challenge: embedding a proactive approach to safety throughout every organizational level, while establishing a unified language across Electra Group’s diverse activities.

Proactive safety at Electra FM is not merely a slogan. It represents an innovative philosophy replacing traditional reactive safety models with a proactive mindset—identifying and addressing risks before incidents occur. Unlike reactive strategies that adapt to existing conditions, our proactive approach reshapes reality by actively leading and implementing meaningful change.

Proactive safety extends far beyond accident prevention. It fosters a work environment where safety is integral to corporate culture, daily thought processes, and the routine actions of every employee and manager.

A cornerstone of Electra FM’s safety approach is efficient hazard management at the site level. Each site independently identifies, manages, and addresses safety hazards continuously to prevent incidents and avoid creating risks for clients. Upon resolving any hazards, relevant management communicates with clients, clearly outlining implemented solutions. This decentralized strategy enables swift and effective hazard management, preserving critical client relationships.

Beyond individual employee commitment, Electra FM encourages collective engagement characterized by collaboration, open dialogue, and joint problem-solving. These values, coupled with determination and exemplary conduct, drive a culture where delivering flawless service is the expected standard.

As part of its initiatives, Electra FM conducts comprehensive safety training tailored to the unique conditions at each site, focusing on specific workplace risks. These trainings blend theoretical knowledge with practical exercises, equipping employees with essential skills and knowledge to effectively implement proactive safety practices on-site.

Another innovative practice is the “Safety Moment” implemented at the start of each workday—a brief session dedicated to discussing relevant safety topics. This simple yet effective approach significantly enhances awareness and reinforces safety as a daily priority.

Electra FM also promotes reporting of “near-miss” incidents—situations that did not result in accidents but could have led to harm. These reports are collected, analyzed, and serve as valuable insights for organizational learning and the development of preventive measures. This initiative, based on internal knowledge sharing, enables early risk detection without incurring the heavy costs associated with learning from actual accidents.

Regular safety committees are held, involving representatives from various disciplines, and encouraging broad employee and management participation. These committees serve as forums for discussing current safety issues, sharing lessons learned from past incidents, and developing collaborative strategies to address safety challenges.

Electra FM’s empowerment program empowers every employee to halt unsafe operations, report hazardous activities, even if conducted by contractors or peers, and refuse tasks that lack proper training. This empowerment is a pillar of the company’s proactive safety culture.

Electra FM continues advancing proactive safety, recognizing that safety is not merely a corporate directive but a shared responsibility across all organizational levels. By combining proven practices with innovative thinking, the company is positioned as a leader in cultivating an effective safety culture within Israel’s business landscape.
