Trakcja PRKiI S.A. carries out a number of activities aimed at shaping a work safety culture. One of them is a competition, decided in mid-June, aimed at the children of the company’s employees, whose aim was an artistic interpretation of the slogan “Mum, Dad, Work Safely” (Mamo, tato, pracuj bezpiecznie). The competition was held under the patronage of the Central Institute for Labour Protection – National Research Institute.
“The aim of the competition was achieved, because thanks to it the topic of safety has come up in the families of our employees. Through shared conversations, especially with children, awareness and the importance of this issue are growing, both in the workplace and in everyday life” – says Maria Żmidzińska, Health and Safety Director at Trakcja PRKiI.
Several dozen entries were received in the competition, made in various art techniques, along with one multimedia work. The winners were chosen by a vote held among employees. The main prizes, in the form of holiday vouchers, were awarded in three age categories. In addition, the competition jury gave special recognition to several works, and all participants received prizes, including everyday items that improve a child’s visibility on the road.
The competition was another initiative carried out by the company to promote and develop a safety culture, alongside, among others, the “Visible – Safe” campaign (Widoczny – bezpieczny) aimed at people moving around the construction sites run by Trakcja PRKiI, and the “Safe from the Start” campaign (Bezpieczny od początku) addressed to newly hired employees.
