In 2012, ATS approached Pristine Condition to partner with them on a health and safety initiative to significantly reduce injuries in the workplace.
Visit any ATS site and you will see a hive of manual handling activity, often tackling large and heavy items such as tyres or servicing equipment. ATS needed a bespoke training programme that identified areas of potential danger, with a programme that not only ensured employee buy-in, but delivered sustainable results across their many sites.
Step forward Pristine Condition.
Since the start of the partnership in 2012 through to 2021, all Manual Handling related incidents have reduced by a 63%. In the same period, Lost Time Incidents attributed to manual handling reduced by 91%.
Lastly, following a refocus involving Pristine Condition at the end of 2021, Manual Handling related incidents reduced by a further 46%, with slips, trips & falls seeing a 36% reduction.
Paul Millward, Health, ATS Safety & Environmental Manager:
"Addressing manual handling injuries was a priority for ATS, due to the impact on the well-being of our employees and their families.
Over the past decade, we witnessed remarkable behavioural changes inspired through ATS and Pristine Condition working together, leading to a remarkable reduction in manual handling injury rates across our network of service centres throughout the United Kingdom.”
Davy Snowdon, Pristine Condition's founder and CEO:
"We are thrilled by the remarkable results we have achieved at ATS, although they come as no surprise. Partnering with ATS has been an absolute pleasure, and their dedicated staff have consistently applied our principles with utmost diligence.
ATS has fully embraced our program, particularly emphasising the importance of sustainability, which is crucial for driving behavioral change and ultimately leading to the outstanding outcomes we are witnessing.
Training fosters commitment, while sustainability delivers tangible results.
In addition to various other advantages, our approach will have a profound positive impact on the well-being of ATS employees, alleviating strain on doctors and health services.
While Pristine Condition guarantees a 50 percent reduction in workplace injuries, the majority of organisations we collaborate with achieve even greater reductions by implementing our proven Olympic techniques.
Our ultimate objective is to completely eliminate accidents and injuries caused by manual handling, and we eagerly anticipate celebrating further success with ATS in the future. Congratulations to everyone involved!"
