World Safety Day: Damco restates commitment to workers’ safety

As part of efforts to promote safety culture in work places, Damco, the world’s leading providers of freight forwarding and supply chain management services. has pledged its continued commitment to safety in all of its facilities.

Mr. Sesan Ibitoye, the Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), Central Africa Area Damco stated this during the annual ‘World Day for Safety and Health at Work 2016’, which was held recently on the company’s premises in Lagos with the theme “Safe for me and safe for you”.

Ibitoye said the company places strong emphasis on safety among all its stakeholders and would advance the theme for this year’s celebration by stimulating awareness of, and reporting of ‘near misses’ in the facilities and subsequently implementing improvements that they point to.

He explained that “near miss” is an incident where no property was damaged and no personal injury was sustained, but where, given a slight shift in time or position, damage or injury could have occurred.

“It is only by being aware of “near misses” that preventive actions can be taken. If we do not know about ‘near misses’ that happened, how can we take actions to prevent an incident next time?” he said.

He highlighted the importance of the company’s safety culture as it provides insight and information needed for the curbing of accident. He listed the benefits of having a safety culture to include: pro-active resolution of hazards; increase in safety ownership; reinforcement of workers’ self-esteem, and exposure of valuable information, which might have been ignored.

Ibitoye urged all participants to imbibe safety culture in line with Damco health and safety policy which seeks to instil a culture of awareness, participation and continuous improvement in all aspects of Health and safety, through active and regular training.

Other dignitaries present at this year’s safety day celebration include, Mrs. Goodness Abara, Country Manager, Damco Logistics, Compt. M.A. Dalhat, the Comptroller of Customs, Lillypond Container Terminal and Mr. Kayode Daniels, the Business Lead, Lillypond Container Terminal among many others.

  17. One more issue is really that video gaming became one of the all-time main forms of entertainment for people of nearly every age. Kids engage in video games, and also adults do, too.

Many thanks for sharing your notions.

  27. The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

  29. Throughout this great scheme of things you actually get an A just for effort and hard work. Where you actually lost us ended up being in the particulars. You know, people say, details make or break the argument.. And it could not be much more correct at this point. Having said that, permit me tell you what did work. The text is actually rather engaging which is most likely why I am taking an effort to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, although I can certainly see a jumps in logic you make, I am not confident of exactly how you appear to connect the details that make the conclusion. For now I shall yield to your position but trust in the future you link the facts much better.

  30. I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

  42. One other thing I would like to express is that rather than trying to match all your online degree courses on times that you complete work (as most people are drained when they get home), try to arrange most of your classes on the week-ends and only a couple courses on weekdays, even if it means a little time off your saturdays. This is fantastic because on the weekends, you will be a lot more rested plus concentrated upon school work. Many thanks for the different ideas I have learned from your site.
