Message from the General Manager
It is important we all understand that ensuring the safety and wellbeing of our people and the environment is our number one priority every day.
A significant component of achieving this is how we iden fy, manage and mi gate risk. In recent weeks we have completed a full review of our Hazard Iden fica on and Risk Management procedures and implemented them across our opera ons.
The cri cal success of these procedures is ensuring they are supported by good conversa on and collabora on between Pan Pac staff, contractors and contractor workers. The intent is to iden fy risk and either eliminate it (remove the hazard) or minimise it by subs tu on, isola on or engineering controls and/or through administra ve controls (standard opera ng procedures, training, signage) and PPE.
Ensuring the successful implementa on of these controls will be a major focus of our opera onal teams between now and the end of the year.
One of the key risks we have iden fied is driving on roads inside and outside the forest. This is a risk many of us are exposed to every day. Driver distrac on is a significant contribu ng factor to this risk. In recent months we have recorded a number of serious incidents regarding driver distrac on, especially with cell phones; drivers engaging with them, talking and tex ng on them. We have a page dedicated to this in this Hawkeye issue and as you will read it only takes a few moments of distrac on to have life changing consequences for you as a driver, your families and any other par es involved.
GM’s Safety Tip
Due to our con nued focus on hazard and risk management I would like to reiterate the safety p used in April; TAKE 5 to STAY ALIVE – this is a simple personal risk assessment tool that can be used by everyone before a task is commenced to check it can be done safely, I would encourage you to use it regularly, including for tasks that are undertaken frequently.
Stop, look and walk around.
Think through the task and what you are going to do.
Iden fy the hazards.
Control the hazards and communicate your plan.
Now ask; can I do the job safely? If yes – commence task, if no – seek assistance.
Thank you for your con nued contribu ons on improving our workplace safety and special congratula ons to those groups and individuals that have achieved LTI free milestones and have been awarded Pan Pac Safety awards, these are great achievements. Please con nue to work safely, stay focused on the job at hand and ensure we are all “Working Together to Protect Each Other from Harm”.

Forests Division 12 Months Rolling Total Incident Frequency
March TIF 11.1
Whilst recent months have seen a rise in the Total Incident Frequency (TIF) rate due to a regular occurrence of MTI’s and LTI’s it is to be hoped that this is a temporary setback. Compared to the last 5 years it can be seen that there has been a steady downwards trend in the TIF. This is largely due to the efforts and a tudes of everyone to “spread the load” and work together to protect each other from harm.
Over the last 6 months Pan Pac Forests Division has conducted a total of 149 audits on Contractors; individual workers; and their equipment. The average score of all these audits is 94.3%, which is a pre y good result. However, when we have drilled down further there have been a total of 692 failed responses within the audits. Whilst many of these failed responses have been of a minor nature here is a summary of the cri cal areas where a failed response was recorded:
These failures can result in someone being seriously hurt or killed – And that someone may be you!
OCCURRENCE NO. OF OCCASIONS:
Insufficient hinge wood width 92

THINK YOU’RE DOING WELL ON
HEALTH & SAFETY?
Take a closer look
Landcorp thought it was doing rather well in health and safety. That was
before New Zealand’s largest farmer took a closer look at it’s figures and
prac ces.
When they started deeper inves ga on, everywhere they looked they
could see unsafe behaviour.
The team also decided to take the underlying causes of the accidents,
which included fa gue and poor nutri on, training, literacy and mental
resilience.
Landcorp encouraged its staff to speak out when there were near misses,
property damage, unsafe behaviour, minor environmental incidents and
discomfort repor ng.
This resulted in a massive increase in reported risk events, rising from 439
in 2014 to 3,067 in 2016.
As a result Landcorp has invested $3million more in new infrastructure, fit
‐for‐purpose health and safety equipment and new technology for com‐
munica ons/data and has turned around its once dismal LTIFR (lost me
incident frequency).
FUEL STORAGE FIRE
The worker has entered the container to use the hand cleaner.
The lid of the hand cleaner has dropped onto the ground.
The container is dark (early morning).
The worker flicks his lighter to create light so he can see the lid.
The naked flame has ignited fuel residue on the floor of the container.
The fire has spread to the stencil washing bucket.
The worker has carried the flaming stencil washing bucket out of the container and ex nguished it with soil.
LEARNINGS AND ACTIONS
Ba ery operated lights are to be fi ed to all containers.
Fuel residue to be cleaned regularly.
Fire ex nguishers are to be mounted close to but not directly within
the high risk area.
Addi onal signage warning of the risk and sta ng the rules in rela on
to naked flames around fuel storage areas.
Add incident to all crew mee ng agenda’s.

DGL 5 STAR DRIVERS
DGL have been running a Driving Incen ve Scheme since January 2017,
the key part of the program is monitoring. To follow are the
improvements we have seen:
August 2016 there were 11 Five Star Drivers out of a fleet of 88
vehicles. 40,804 speeding incidents were recorded.
September 2017 we now have 14 Five Star Drivers out of a fleet of
94 vehicles. 31,479 speeding incidents were recorded. That’s 25%
less than the previous year.
TETHERED MACHINES IN ACTION
This is some of the windthrow at Waipapa
We used the Falcon winch assist machine to deal to the windthrow
This is the fella buncher connected to the Falcon winch assist
This block has been half pulled with the Crew 68’s swing yarder
Throughout August we had
an addi onal steep slope
harves ng machine working
in the estate.
The focus of both machines
in recent months has been
dying up the windthrow.
Quinton Ewers drove the
Norwest harves ng
machine. Quinton has 9
years experience on trac on
assist opera ons. Between
Quinton and Jamaine
Risse o (DGL) a large area
of steep, extremely risky
windthrown forest was
harvested without incident.
It’s great to finally see the back of what has been a very wet winter. Summer has arrived, the temperature is rising and the Yards are star ng to dry out. This has changed the site condi ons, reducing the risk in some of the things we do, however crea ng new risks in other areas and tasks.
The increased temperatures have got the Pines growing again and this is evident by how slippery the logs have become. Loading and unloading these logs safely has been a challenge and has resulted in several incidents recently, causing property damage. Reduce the risk by reducing your grab size, don’t rush and ensure as you build your loads the bed is as level as possible. This will also help with unloading at the des na on.
Dust is the other main health concern coming into the warmer, windier months. If you no ce dust is star ng to li off the surfaces, make sure it’s reported so control measures can be put in place. Reduce the risk by blading off the bark and loose material from your yard space.
The 3PY has been busy engineering a number of improvements, the most significant being the new log length measuring system. This uses an array of lasers to very accurately measure the length of the log being cut. This has resulted in almost no logs being rejected for out of spec length. Great result!
Keep safe and thanks again for all your efforts. Stephen

It is hard to believe that Christmas isn’t too far away! As we come into the summer months please make sure you stay hydrated as Hawkes Bay summers are draining.
This year has been busy and we would like to thank you all for all the hard work you have put in over the year and the weekends. The work forecast going forward looks like we will be busy for a while.
A er the first week of October we will not be sending Napier trucks to Gisborne. We have scaled back the opera on up there and are now going to consolidate our cartage back here. Thanks to all of you that have gone up there over the past eight years.
We have now had Drive‐Cam and MT Data in for over a year and overall results have been great. While we have had a great success story, there are some disappoin ng events s ll happening.
Our biggest event that is s ll happening is going too fast into corners. Some trucks we never see on the IVS report, while others are on there every day. Please slow down and drive defensively.
Cell phone usage while driving is s ll happening. We had four cell phone events in ten days. This is disappoin ng especially a er the Richard Po s incident this year. With the accidents we have had this year all drivers have been wearing their seat‐belts and this has stopped any serious injuries. Your seat‐belt can save your life please make sure you use it as it is the law.
The new site access entry into Pan Pac is going through its commissioning over the next two weeks. Please make sure you slow down to 10kms. Your card needs to be in the booster to enable the barrier to open. Please make sure your card is in the holder when driving through the middle lane.

NZTA—DRIVER DISTRACTION AD A driver is distracted when they pay a en on to an ac vity
that takes their focus away from the primary task of driving.
Any extra ac vity puts demand on a driver, which may
reduce their driving standard. It may cause the driver to
become less observant. A lower standard of driving means
that a driver is less likely to an cipate hazards and crashes
could occur as a result of the distrac on.
Acceptable Not Acceptable
PPE is equipment that will protect you against health or safety risks at work. It can include items such as safety helmets, gloves, eye protec on, ear muffs, high visibility clothing, safety footwear and safety harnesses.
PPE reduces the risk of injury or harm to users caused by hazards present in the workplace.
What’s the condi on of your PPE? Remember your safety comes first.
If your hi visibility clothing starts looking like the ‘unacceptable’ photo below then it’s me to ask your employer for a new one. Out with the old in with the new!
CHAINSAW OPERATORS
You are required to wear a helmet, visor or goggles, safety
mi , ear protec on, chaps and safety boots.
Have you recently checked the condi on of your gear? Is your
chain brake working? Is your safety mi in
good condi on?
Your safety mi ensures that if kickback
occurs the operators hand remains on the

As most of us are now aware there is a new Site Access system involving
security gates, barrier arms, sliding doors and turns les to monitor and
ensure the safety and protect the property of all people on site.
Everyone needing access on to the mill site had to have been inducted and
were then issued with access cards or “fobs”. Now this is where it gets
interes ng. Many recipients of the fobs had never seen a “fob” before and
there was li le instruc on with the device.
Wally 1 & 2 were duly handed their fobs and the system went live. The
me came when Wally 1 and 2 were each, on separate occasions, first
confronted with the closed office door and the glowing red scanner. Out
comes the flash blue “fob” with a black thing hanging off it. Both pressed,
swiped and jabbed the scanner with their blue “fob”, finally giving up and
accusing the useless things of being duds.
Annabelle was having a ball enjoying the entertainment but eventually
could take no more and had to tell each Wally the useless black thingy was
the actual fob and the blue thing was just the retrac ng string case for the
fob!
Even be er ‐ there is a rumour that a Mill staff person cut the useless
black thing off his “fob” and threw it away to make the (blue) “fob” easier
to use.
