0:39 we make on every job site and within our personal lives every day. Creating a zero harm culture is about protecting what matters most, our people, our
0:48 families, and the environments to which we work. to help us in our goal to keep everyone safe each day. Our supporting resources include best practices,

1:00 essential behaviors. Also essential is the workplace environment where we can share and continually improve. Beyond
1:07 these resources is the expectation we have of ourselves and of each other to always do the right thing, work safely,
1:14 and positively engage when others are at risk. We must always be open to sharing our lessons so that we continually improve and achieve our goal of being

Chapter 5: When to Use Stop Work Authority
2:09 Make sure we don't skip over something that could be a critical step.
2:12 There's three main ways to know when you should use stop work authority. Number one, is there a hazard associated with
2:20 your work task that has not been discussed in the pre-job brief? Number two, are the controls we put in place to
2:30 eliminate or minimize those hazards not effective enough? Do they need to be stronger? And number three, are you
2:38 unsure at all about the task or the instructions you were given to do your job? They are the three main reasons
2:47 when you should consider using stop work obligation or authority.
Chapter 6: Why Employees Work Safely
2:52 I work safely for my 10-year-old daughter.
2:55 I work safely cuz I want my crew and my guys to go home every night to their family just as I do to my family. I work
3:02 safely because we all want to go home after our work shift and we all have family at home to care for.
3:07 We know that creating a culture of zero harm requires deliberate effort. This is why before work begins, we employ a
Chapter 7: Pre-Job Safety Briefings Explained
3:15 scientifically backed evidence-based process we call the pre-job brief. The process is a structured research-driven
3:22 method. It is designed to protect our workforce throughout the day by minimizing high energy exposure and significant injury and fatality level
3:30 hazards. These pre-job crew led safety conversations create a clear shared understanding of work tasks, associated
3:38 hazards, and necessary controls. They send a strong signal that safety, not speed, is always the day's priority.
Chapter 8: Safety Programs and Training
3:48 Underpinning all safety efforts is our comprehensive set of programs and policies. These include our digitally accessible gas and electric safety manuals, EHSQ absolutes, energy wheel,
4:01 life-saving rules, toolbox talks, and distinctive safety moment cards with topics covering all 365 days of the
4:09 year. Additionally, our behavior-based programs, including Think Safe, reinforce a culture of awareness,
4:17 coaching, and accountability from leadership to field crews. These programs compound everyone's focus on
4:25 leading indicators that ingrain safety throughout our organization.
Chapter 9: Mental Health and Wellbeing
4:30 I work safely because I make sure I go home to my family every single day.
4:35 I work safe so I get home to my little kids every day. We know safety does not stop or start at the job site. That is why we are placing an even greater
4:44 emphasis on mental well-being. Asking our leaders to check in with their crews in the pre-job briefs and providing mental health resources.
4:53 Do we have any problems with uh mental or physical fitness for today going into the shift?
4:58 At Century, we believe partnership is the optimal way to elevate safety performance. That is why we are active members of leading safety organizations

5:06 and industry peer groups. Our commitment is to share best practices, benchmark performance, and strengthen our safety
5:14 culture. For us, safety is a journey of continuous improvement. One that never stops.
Chapter 11: Continuous Improvement in Safety
5:22 I work safe because I owe it to those who came before me and fought for our safety and conditions and to those who come behind me so that we can all go
5:30 home safe. I work safely to protect my crew and myself. I work safely to be my brother's keeper.
Chapter 12: Protecting Our Teams and Communities
5:37 Safety is foundational to how we operate and is essential to delivering reliable energy and maintaining the trust of our
5:45 communities and customers. We can't think of anything more important.
