T<\/span>oday marks the start of Mercury\u2019s annual\u00a0<\/span>\u2018<\/span>Countdown to\u00a0<\/span>a Safe\u00a0<\/span>Christmas<\/span>\u2019<\/span> safety campaign, which takes place across our projects throughout Europe in the lead up to the holidays. As activity levels rise and the year draws to a close, the campaign reinforces our shared commitment to Work Safe, Home Safe and reminds everyone of the\u00a0<\/span>goal<\/span>\u00a0that matters most: getting home safe for Christmas.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
<\/span>Safety is our anchor value. It underpins everything we do and is the bedrock of our delivery, training, and performance. The\u00a0<\/span>\u2018<\/span>Countdown to Christmas<\/span>\u2019<\/span>\u00a0campaign strengthens this focus at a time when attention can drift, encouraging everyone to take care, look out for one another, and\u00a0<\/span>maintain<\/span>\u00a0the same\u00a0<\/span>high standards<\/span>\u00a0that define our work year-round.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
<\/span>Since it began, the campaign has promoted the highest levels of health, safety, and wellbeing across all Mercury sites. Each day highlights a key theme, including physical safety, mental health, road awareness, and home safety. Activities include toolbox talks, safety demonstrations, and practical discussions designed to keep safety front of mind both on and off site.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
<\/span>Speaking about this year\u2019s campaign, Louis\u00a0<\/span>Kroucamp<\/span>,\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Head of Health and Safety<\/span>, said:<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Safety is the one<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>cons<\/span>istent<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>value that connects every person at Mercury, regardless of role or location. The Countdown to Christmas campaign reinforces that connection. It reminds us to finish the year safely,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>keep our<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>our<\/span>\u00a0duty of care<\/span>\u00a0at the<\/span>\u00a0forefront<\/span><\/span>, and\u00a0<\/span>make<\/span> sure everyone returns home safe for Christmas<\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

At Mercury, safety is more than a policy. It is a shared duty and a reflection of who we are. As the year concludes, the <\/span>\u2018<\/span>Countdown to Christmas<\/span>\u2019<\/span>\u00a0campaign brings our focus back to that duty, ensuring every individual, team, and partner\u00a0<\/span>remains<\/span>\u00a0Work Safe, Home Safe through the festive season and beyond.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
