Managing the Risk of Runaways Secondary Protection Update –
Vortok Rearguard
Jonjo Carruthers – RMT L2 Safety Rep
Ian Joslin – IMDM Lancs & Cumbria DU
Tebay – 15th February 2004.
Some History...
Update to NR/L2/OHS/019
Specific clauses in 019 standard will be re-worded to include a requirement to manage the risk of a runaway
7.2 Creating the Plan
8.3 Possession Planning
10.4 Safe System of Work Pack for Worksites in Possessions Published in
Weekly Operating Notices
Intent is to include this in the rewrite that is being done by Hayley Child on behalf of the PDSW team . First draft of which will be ready early October
Gradient Mapping Chart We have the Gradient Data that is easily filtered by Route ELR etc
We have produced a simple mapping chart for Planners /Section Managers etc
that gives an high level overview of the high risk areas
Extract of Mapped <1:100 sites within specified boundaries
L&C DU Stats:
52 Gradients < 1 in 100 – 75 Routes miles (13% of DU)
Planning We need the local planning teams and Route Planning teams to work closer together when looking at worksites within a possession to understand what other activities are being undertaken
Need to enforce a lock down on worksites (IE T-5)
Every body involved in planning needs to understand the risk from Runaways and its potential mitigation. Guidance documentation will be produced for planners and included in tool kit
Will include the risk of runaway sites in the Hazard directory (Adding a new HW code) - meeting held with asset Information agreed a code will be added into the hazard directory for Runaway risk (gradient greater than 1 in 100)
Identify a way of Bulk uploading the data into HD to take the workload away from the SSM - Asset Info agreed in principle to do this
Won Extract
1) Review T-10 Day WON Document
2) Identify Sites of Work within <1:100 gradient centrally and share across the DU at T-8 Days
3) Collate Risk Assessments/Consideration Pro-forma
4) Track deployment/mitigation and share with the IMDM
Process Overview
Identified Sites of Work at Risk
Risk Assessment Pro-Forma Example
DU Runaway Risk Consideration Tracker
Vortok Rearguard Equipment
Vortok Rearguard Equipment
Training
Training material produced by Vortok (level 6 Briefing), need to confirm with Route Champions how this is to be rolled out in their Routes
Routes need to Identify a resource for ‘train the trainer’ sessions
Cascade briefing to all front life staff working in high risk areas , so that they understand the risk
Implementation Toolkit
Basic Toolkit to be put together and issued to all Routes to include :-
• Step by step guide to implementation
• Training and assessment Material
• Flow chart for deployment
• Gradient Mapping Charts
• Guidance for section planners
• Lessons Learnt from Carlisle ( workshop was held on 23rd August in Preston and the output will provide the basis for the Routes guidance and risk assessment of Runaway mitigation)
Next steps – Implementation
Ensure Route Roll Out Plans are in place and monitored
We can’t fail to implement this again, but remember its “Managing the Risk of Runaways” not Vortok Rearguard
Needs continued support from route champions and Lead Reps …..
Starting to engage supply chain through Track Safety Alliance
Intention is that tool kit and all the Groundwork is done centrally then Routes implement to suit their needs
CMOs have been advised using Wales CMO template
Thanks for listening.

Control of Vibration at Work 2005 Regulations
• Railway contractors have different mechanisms for controlling
vibration at work.
• However, exposure to vibration remains unclear, often resulting
operators working to different systems when working for multiple
contractors.
• The problem can’t be solved by contractors working in isolation.
Industry has been challenged by the ORR to work together to provide a solution. A working group has
now been put together consisting of the following members;
Some of the issues that the group will be looking at include;
• Legal responsibilities and duty holders.
• Training and awareness.
• Consistency in exposure monitoring arrangements.

Fair Culture Update – Recap 12th October 2016
Paul Clyndes - Work Stream Sponsor,RMT
Zoe Gayton - Work Stream Lead, Network Rail,
What is your understanding of the fair culture, fair behaviour principles?
• Huge variation in the of knowledge and understanding of Fair Culture 50% of one group had not even heard of it.
• Some thought is was another way of disciplining, or happens when you do something wrong.
• Lack of awareness of the process and how it is used.
• Need more information on what it is and how it is applied.
• Very few had experienced it in action or knew anyone that had.
How do you feel FCFB principles align with LSR?
• Most people understood the LSR but were unclear of the Fair culture principles.
• Fair Culture is not included in safety briefs/days/tool box talks but LSR are.
• Inconsistency in application of fair Culture and the Life Saving Rules
• Fair culture principles are there to underpin the LSR and make sure that people are dealt with fairly and create trust in the process and consistency.
Do Managers treat everyone fairly when dealing with safety incidents and close calls?
• Line manager training, to give us a
consistent approach to investigation and
use.
• Need to do some myth busting around the
fair culture process, its not to be used as a
tool to threaten peoples jobs. It’s a clear
process.
• We want people to feel confident that
they will be treated fairly during the
whole process, whatever the outcome.
• Want people to see that it works to
improve safety for everyone, with sensible
local and national recommendations.
What we need today
• Giving you case studies of some events that have been taken through the Fair Culture process.
• We would like you to review the details and go through the fair culture flow chart, see what you find?
• We would also like you to tell us what you think each phrase means. For Example “Reckless Contravention” what does that actually mean?
• Later – feedback to the whole group
