About the GMRs & this site

What do the GMRs include?

The GMRs are made up of 10 key risks that would result in significant consequence if not appropriately managed.  These risks are outlined below:

 

GMR     

Personal Commitment

 

1

 

Traffic, Plant and People

 

I will protect myself and others from interactions with plant

 

2

 

Excavation and Trenching

 

I will only enter an excavation or trench with approved support or controls in place

 

3

 

Lifting Operations

 

I will only engage in lifting operations if trained and competent to do so

 

4

 

Electrical Safety

 

I will protect myself and others from electrical hazards

 

5

 

Working at Height

 

I will protect myself and others from falling objects and falls from height

 

6

 

Wellbeing

 

I will take care of my own wellbeing and the wellbeing of others

 

7

 

Temporary Works

 

I will support the safe delivery of temporary works

 

8

 

Isolation

 

I will protect myself and others against exposure of energy sources

 

9

 

Environmental Management

 

I will protect the environment, prevent pollution, and minimise waste and resource use

 

10

 

Working on Rail

 

I will only enter and work in the Rail Danger Zone when all the required controls are in place

 

 

The GMRs apply across the entire project lifecycle and must be considered during the pre-contracts, delivery and completion phases of a project.  They have been developed to provide a clear and concise point of reference for our key risks, and are mandatory for all John Holland personnel, contractors, subcontractors, JV partners, visitors at workplaces where the John Holland Management System is used.

 

The 2020 GMRs will supersede the GMRs and RMRs that were originally created in 2012 and revised in 2014.
