QFAB celebrates a significant milestone of achieving 2 million hours without a Lost Time Incident (LTI). This is a testament to the commitment and dedication of the team to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all its employees. The event recognized and rewarded all employees for their contribution to the continuous improvement of the company’s health and safety culture. Since the middle of 2022, the team has been working tirelessly to mobilize more than 1000 people for a series of largescale fabrication projects. Numerous logistical challenges were faced along the way in developing a safety culture that could meet the demands of bringing a new yard into operation while executing these complex projects. The team came together in a collaborative effort that included the hard work and dedication of the yard management team, JV partners, customers, and the workforce, which ultimately led to reaching this landmark.
Nakilat’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board at QFAB, Eng. Abdullah Al-Sulaiti said “workplace safety is of paramount importance. It is essential that we do everything we can to prevent accidents and injuries from occurring. This requires a concerted effort from everyone in the workplace, from management to employees. By achieving LTI-free status, the team at QFAB have demonstrated a commitment to creating a safe and healthy work environment, which is a core value and foundational pillar at Nakilat and its JV’s operating in the shipyard.’’
John Angus Macpherson, Managing Director, QFAB said “The effort and dedication of the QFAB team to bring the QFAB yard up to full speed, while maintaining high safety standards, is immense. I am very proud of the entire workforce and what they’ve accomplished in such a short space of time. We will continue to focus on the safe execution of our projects, delivered with zero hurt!”
