This procedure applies to all business functions within Network Rail and impacts upon all Network Rail employees.

This procedure replaces the Worksafe procedure in Section 6 and Appendix B of all Network Rail Local Safety and Environment Policy Arrangement documents.

This procedure replaces all other Worksafe or similar procedures inherited by Network Rail from other employers.

Purpose

This document details the process by which Network Rail provides a method for employees to deal with immediate safety problems. It is designed to give employees confidence that if they question the safety of working systems their views will be given serious consideration by the organisation and they will not face recriminations. It makes sure work stops and the system is changed, if potential or imminent serious risk of accident or incident arises.

It is intended to replace all other Worksafe or similar procedures inherited by Network Rail from other employers.
