ORACLE Principal
At the core of everything we do, is the ORACLE Principal which is an insight into a safe future. These key values are transferable to all aspects of service station operation and are the very heart of what we do.
O – Observation
Observe all the hazards that are present permanently or introduced under changed circumstances. By being vigilant about new threats that may arise, this proactive approach ensures the safety, minimises the risk, and maintains compliance with regulatory standards.
R – Risk
Understand how the permanent and introduced hazards present risk. Comprehensive analysis evaluates their potential impact on your operations. By thoroughly understanding these risks, you can implement effective control measures, prioritise safety interventions, and ensure that all staff are prepared to manage and mitigate potential emergencies.
A – Assessment
Assessment of hazards, risks and changes in the site circumstances is an essential skill to eliminate, prevent or mitigate hazards by realising the risks & preventing harm or danger. A robust assessment is essential for maintaining a safe, compliant, and efficient service station environment.
C – Communication
Communication between staff, management, contractors, the public and the fuel delivery companies is a fundamental element of site safety. By always being fully aware of the undertakings of your site, you become proactive in identifying and elevating potential hazards.
L – Liability
Liability of the site for the failure to eliminate, prevent or mitigate the risks of hazards always exists. Liability must always be assumed and never allow any hazard to NOT be your problem or issue. If you see a hazard assess the risk and decide if you can help preventing harm.
ALWAYS ACT AS IF ITS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY because in most cases you will be accountable to some extent.
E – Education
Education is your best friend. Always strive to learn everything about your industry you can. Knowledge is the key and WILL save lives and prevent incidents.
