Rail Safety Awareness at Dove Holes
August 18, 2022
Six more CEMEX colleagues from across the business have successfully completed their Rail Safety Awareness training course at Dove Holes quarry in Buxton. For some, this was a refresher but for others it was their first insight into rail safety. Congratulations to everyone who took part – all passed with flying colours.
The course, run by Colette Ranford from Victa Railfreight, covered instructions, knowledge and understanding, to ensure trainees are competent when walking safely on or about our CEMEX railway yards and sidings. Course content included an overview of rail terminology and definitions, the railway environment, our responsibilities when working in the rail environment, safe walking around rail yards and sidings, safe working, emergency situations and effective communication.
