The theme for Lift Off Q1 2025 is ‘Health, Safety, and Wellbeing’. The event will take place in our headquarters in Hounslow on March 14th.
At Heathrow, we prioritize the health, safety, and well-being of our colleagues, passengers, and neighbours above all else. This commitment serves as the foundation of our efficient operations, secure airport environment, and sustainable business practices.
To consistently enhance our approach to Health, Safety, and Well-Being and stay ahead of emerging developments, we are keen to explore innovative technologies and solutions in this domain. We’re particularly interested in below areas:
• Risk assessment and investigation
o technologies that can proactively recognise hazards associated with the tasks and recommend control measures.
o AI tool that produces investigation reports including cause analysis and propose recommendations for improvement based on reporter’s input and Health and Safety data and standards/procedures.
• Manual handling, fatigue, verbal and physical abuse
o technologies that reduce risk of injury from manual handling. For instance, smart way of quickly assessing the weight of an item such as security tray.
o solutions that enable us to proactively monitor, manage and respond to staff fatigue, promoting well-being and maintaining optimal performance levels.
o innovative solutions that prevent or dissolve verbal and physical abuse.
• Health and Safety in infrastructure projects
o solutions that reduce health and safety risks in infrastructure projects such as demolition and construction logistics.
o communication solutions that enable efficient and effective exchange of real-time information in infrastructure project management.
• Robotic and autonomous solutions
o innovative use of robotic and autonomous technologies that reduce manual handling and increase safety.
• Staff well-being
o technologies that enable DSE assessment of colleagues working at their computers, recognizing interventions needed to ensure safety of their work with computer and desk.
o technologies or solutions that help us proactively identify mental health concerns, fatigue etc. and support our staffs in addressing them.
Take part in our vision to champion health, safety, and wellbeing, empowering our staffs and communities to thrive while building a safer, healthier, and more prosperous future for everyone.
