Tranz Rail accept this recommendation.
The safety observation system includes a facility for Managers to monitor the currency of safety observations, and in particular identify those that have fallen overdue. Procedures already exist for Managers to ensure defined frequencies are achieved.
Additionally, Tranz Rail has reviewed its procedures for safety observations for newly certified staff and expect this process to be completed by the end of June 2001.
