Over 40% of fall fatalities happen due to missing or inadequate guardrails. That’s not an accident, that’s an oversight. Guardrails are among the simplest and most effective fall-prevention systems, yet they’re often ignored under pressure for “faster” work. No deadline is worth a life. Protect your teams. Audit your sites. Reinforce your rails.

1 in 4 industrial fires begins during hot work. Yet, most could have been prevented with a 2-minute area inspection. Real incidents reveal one truth, it’s rarely the flame, but the neglect that ignites disaster. From oil residues to gas leaks, hidden combustibles wait for a single spark. Before every weld, every cut, every grind, stop and scan. Prevention is faster than firefighting.

A crane lift may last seconds, but what’s at stake can last a lifetime. Between 2nd June and 5th July 2025, over 1200 engineers and safety officers at a National  Aluminium Manufacturing plant in Jharsuguda, participated in a large-scale Crane Operator Training program. From safe lifting techniques to load chart interpretation and real-world hazard recognition, this training was more than just operational, it was transformational. Because in high-risk environments, knowing how to operate a crane isn’t enough, knowing how to operate it safely is what saves lives. One wrong signal. One unbalanced load. That’s all it takes. Training like this ensures that every lift is backed by confidence, competence, and control.

What makes a scaffold truly safe? It’s not just the structure it’s the scrutiny. CORE EHS recently conducted a Scaffolding Inspector Training session in Thane, Mumbai, focused on empowering managers, engineers, and supervisors with the knowledge to assess, evaluate, and ensure scaffolding safety at every stage. With construction activity growing rapidly, inspections can't be a formality they must be a frontline defense. Let’s not wait for incidents to remind us why inspection matters. Let’s build it into the culture.
