Hanson is part of the HeidelbergCement group, which employs 57,000 people across five continents. HeidelbergCement is a global leader in aggregates and has leading positions in cement, concrete and heavy building products.
Hanson believes that sustainable development is a fundamental challenge in our world and in our business today. One key part of this challenge is the health and safety of those who work for us and live in the communities in which we operate. While internationally each of our operations has taken action individually on this issue, we recognize that our safety performance is not yet at a level we can accept.
Consequently, we are endorsing an initiative aimed at improving the safety of our drivers and contractors, groups in which we have seen far too many accidents and injuries. This initiative will be actively promoted within each of our operations. We will publicly report on our progress, and will share safety lessons learned among our companies to help raise safety awareness and performance across our industry.
Locally Hanson undertakes to share with Australian businesses, and the general community, safety lessons learned by our local operations.
Hanson has been part of the NRSPP Steering Committee since inception and only recently stepped down. Steve Williams, on behalf of Hanson, has been a reliable and regular contributor to Hanson.

Hanson is recognised as one of the Founding Partners of NRSPP with Steve Williams kindly helping design and build the foundational elements of the program during its establishment phase.
Steve was an incredibly passionate contributor. A quiet contributor who everyone listened to intently when he shared his valuable insights.
Hanson was a first mover in the aggregates space leading the way with their safety management systems for their agitators but also for the application of CoR management systems as an organisation.
