02Safety

Rules nobody bends

Applied to staff, drivers, contractors and visitors alike.

Rule 1

Stay in the lanes

Drivers stay in their cabs in marked lanes. Walking in the yard is forbidden.

Rule 2

High visibility

Vest, helmet and safety boots past the gate, without exception.

Rule 3

Stop the job

Anyone can stop any job they think is unsafe, and will be thanked for it.

Rule 4

Report it

Near misses are reported on the app. We fix causes, not people.

Security

Cargo that arrives intact

The port is ISPS certified, fenced and patrolled. Every truck is identified at the gate by plate and driver card, and every box is sealed, scanned where required and tracked by the yard system.

  • 1,100 cameras watched from a central control room

  • Seal checks on every export at gate in
