THEME: OUR AIM – ZERO HARM

Date: 4th March 2023 – 10th March 2023

National Safety Week (NSW) Campaign spearheaded by the National Safety Council for commemorating its foundation day – 4^th March, has entered its 52^nd year. The objective of the Campaign is to help industries and other organisations to promote Safety, Good Health and Well-being and move towards achieving a zero-harm status for the organization. In view of this the theme for National Safety Week (NSW) has been derived as “Our Aim – Zero Harm”.

Eka Infra celebrated the National Safety Week campaign from 4^th to 10^th March 2023 at their Head Office with active participation from work from home staff. Our aim was to be renewing the commitment and improve awareness on Safety of our employees, associates, contractors and other stakeholders and we will continue to maintain the interest on Safety throughout the year and achieve the Aim “ZERO HARM “.

On this event, we affirmed our commitment by taking the Safety and Health oath that we shall strive for Safety, Good Health and Well-being and move towards achieving a zero-harm status for the organization and personal life.

Safety And Health Oath:

“On this Day, I solemnly affirm that I will rededicate myself to the cause of safety, health and protection of environment, will do my best to observe rules, regulations, procedures and develop attitudes and habits conducive for achieving these objectives. I fully realise that accidents and occupational diseases are a drain on the national economy and my lead to disablements deaths, harm to health, damage to property, social suffering and general degradation on environment. I will do everything possible for the prevention of accident, occupational diseases and protection of environment in the interest of self, family, organisation, community, and the nation at large”.

As part of this celebrations, we had organized Safety Slogan and Safety Poem competition among our employees, associates etc. to promote and maintain commitment to safety.

Some contributions are captured below: (Poems and Slogans)

1. “Care and Harm are two sides of a Coin,

With “Zero” in between they fall in love.

With Belief comes Commitment and Reliability,

For Zero Harm to provide a safe workplace”

2. “Life is just once, so why to lose all the fun,

Universe gives you more, including its moon and sun.

Be aware when you move in the night,

Don’t you dare to wear white but bright.

While you are on the move, look left and right,

Indeed, don’t u miss the car from your sight.

Enjoy the Journey of Life , with no harm,

Let us shape ourselves with two limb and arm.

Wearing Safety daily is like you wear a smile,

This will make sure that your life will go more while.

Love and Care for yourself to be,

As there are your loved ones waiting to see.”
