What is Stand Together for Safety?
 The Australian oil and gas industry is holding its fifth annual
Stand Together for Safety event in May 2013
 Teams across the country will stop work for two hours on their
chosen day in May to talk about improving workplace safety
 Stand Together for Safety provides a designated time for
CEOs, executives and senior managers to talk directly with
frontline workers about safety issues
 This emphasises the key message that safety is everyone’s
responsibility and it relies on all staff working together.
In 2012 more than 38,000 people from 54
different companies across the industry
participated in Stand Together for Safety.
You can see a list of participating
companies for 2013 on the website:
www.standtogetherforsafety.com.au
Let people know where your leaders and
senior management are today (or throughout
the event) and what they are doing.
Your company leadership team should be
trying to see as many people as possible
throughout the month of May.

 In 2011, APPEA and its member companies developed
a new safety collaboration strategy to re-invigorate the
industry’s drive to becoming a global safety leader and
to ensure a clear focus on process safety and
prevention of major accident events
 In keeping with this strategy, the theme for 2012 Stand
Together for Safety was ‘Keeping it contained: What’s
your responsibility?’
 Following on from ‘What’s your responsibility?’,
our theme for 2013 focuses on ‘Protecting your team:
Who are you responsible for?’
