Abu Dhabi Terminals launches Safety Campaign in Khalifa Port and Mina Zayed

Abu Dhabi Terminals has launched a company wide safety campaign in both Khalifa Port and Mina Zayed aimed at raising safety awareness, for all port users and the need to regularly promote and maintain safe behavior, in all the facilities operated by Abu Dhabi Terminals. Speaking after the launching of the campaign, Abu Dhabi Terminals Chief Executive Officer Martijn van de Linde said "ADT strongly believes that it is our responsibility to ensure the port user's safety, this campaign is a great opportunity to raise awareness about safe behavior and to confirm how dangerous our business can be when safety rules are not followed." Abu Dhabi Terminals continues to be one of the industry leaders in safety performance as the LTI rate has decreased by over a third compared to the same period last year.. LTI - Lost Time Injury - is recognised globally as a key indicator for a company's safety performance. ADT performance since the beginning of this year remains at Zero LTI which meets the company goals for 2013 "Safety is a top priority for ADT across all its operations and lines of business. This new campaign is a reflection of an on-going commitment to safety and the sharing of this information with our valued customers," Martijn said and added "Every day Abu Dhabi Terminals facilities receives around 1,200 trucks and this campaign aims to reach all of them. The safety of our staff, customers and stakeholders is an important consideration for all of us at ADT. This campaign will certainly have a positive impact on the safety practices in and around our facilities." – Emirates News Agency, WAM
