Hazard Hunt Safety Walk Through drives proactive risk management in Muscat

Douglas OHI recently conducted a focused Hazard Hunt Safety Walk Through at one of its project sites in Muscat, reinforcing our commitment to proactive risk identification and strong safety leadership.

The purpose was clear. Identify hazards early. Strengthen accountability. Prevent incidents before they occur.

Led by project management and the HSSE team, the walk-through brought together engineers, supervisors, HSE officers, and frontline teams. The session created a practical forum to assess live site conditions, challenge assumptions, and verify that controls were both effective and consistently applied.

Key areas of focus included housekeeping standards, access and egress routes, scaffolding and work at height controls, equipment condition, electrical compliance, material storage, and PPE adherence. Observations were documented in real time, immediate corrective actions were taken where required, and follow-up measures were assigned with defined ownership and deadlines.

Importantly, the Hazard Hunt was not simply an inspection exercise. It reinforced visible leadership, encouraged open dialogue, and recognised good practices already in place. Teams were empowered to speak up, raise concerns, and contribute solutions.

The walk-through strengthened collaboration across disciplines and reinforced a shared responsibility for maintaining safe working environments. By identifying risks before they escalate, the project team demonstrated that safety is embedded in daily operations and decision-making.

Through structured initiatives such as the Hazard Hunt, Douglas OHI continues to drive continuous improvement across its Muscat projects. Every hazard identified and addressed strengthens site performance, protects our people, and supports responsible project delivery.

Safety leadership is demonstrated through action. This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to maintaining high standards across all operations.
