Safety, Health, and

Environment

Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) is the final TPM

pillar and implements a methodology to drive towards the
achievement of zero accidents.
 It is important to note that this is not just safety related but covers zero
accidents, zero overburden, and zero pollution.

 Vision is to cultivate a Continuous Improvement culture that achieves a

sustained record of Safety, Health, & Environmental excellence.

 It supports and lends stability to the overall continuous improvement

process and all of the other TPM Pillars.
SHE Pillar Plan

 All Co-workers Internally Motivated to Work Safety

 Have the Necessary Safety Knowledge & Skills

 Everyone Takes Charge of Their Own Safety

 Employees Empowered to Take Safety Action.

SHE Mission

 To enhance and protect the most important assets –

its people, brands, and reputation. 
 Incorporate SHE concerns into business strategy.

 Recognizes that each of us has a responsibility for achieving safety, health, and
environmental excellence.

 Fully integrates SHE into all business processes.

How SHE pillar is Implented

 Although the SHE pillar is the eighth pillar of TPM, it should not be
thought of as the last to be deployed.

 Implementation of SHE strategies occurs throughout the TPM

deployment process.

 SHE pillar activities aim to reactively eliminate the root causes of

incidents that have occurred
 to prevent reoccurrence, proactively reduce the risk of future potential
incidents by targeting near miss and potential hazards.
 proactively reduce the risk of future potential incidents

 targets near miss and potential hazards.

 The pillar targets three key areas: people’s behaviours,

machine conditions and the management system

 All SHE pillar activities should be aligned to relevant external

quality standards and certifications.
SHE in Autonomous Maintenance

 Autonomous Maintenance is Initial Cleaning. Safety problems, (unsafe

situations, unsafe behaviors, and other hazards) are identified during this
step along with the other problems.
 The problems are then tackled through restoration and improvement
during Step 2
 Then the situation is sutained in Step 3
 From Step 4 onwards, activities are pitched at progressively higher levels,
with the aim of creating worker-friendly, accident-free workplaces. 
SHE in Effective Maintenance

 This improves safety because equipment problems often lead

to accidents, which are often due to operators’ lack of
experience in dealing with abnormalities or carrying out non-
routine tasks.
SHE in Early Management

 This pillar aims to create user-friendly, hazard-free

equipment that can be operated with confidence.

 The purpose of Early Management is to work towards

achieving robust, trouble-free equipment and comfortable
work environments, from the development phase onward
SHE in Quality Maintenance

 Rigorous establishment and sustainment of processing

conditions are particularly crucial when hazardous materials
are being handled.

 If a quality defect occurs, non-routine work will be required

to deal with the problem, increasing the risk of an accident.
SHE in Training and Development

 Accidents can happen if operators do not know how to handle

tools correctly.

 this pillar of TPM helps to eliminate unsafe behavior by

improving people’s operating and maintenance skills.
SHE in Administration and Support

 Safety is also important in administrative and support

departments.

 Support departments may be responsible for packaging and

transporting the final products, so they must also identify and
resolve any unsafe situations 
Importance of SHE pillar

 A reputation for maintaining a hazard-free, healthy workplace and a cheerful and

animated corporate culture can only enhance a company’s value

 Helps the company to make it an attractive career choice.

 Companies that provide no value or that are harmful to the community should fall
by the wayside

 Companies that are constantly afflicted by malfunctioning equipment or whose

employees are forever troubleshooting unexpected problems cannot expect to
establish a reputation for having a cheerful and animated corporate culture.
 SHE programs do not require anything highly specialized or out of the ordinary

 Can be undertaken within the TPM program and can be performed in the
workplace as part of any other daily activity

 Practices that result in accidents, hazards, or pollution are a threat to a company’s

very existence and should be systematically eliminated by means of a
comprehensive safety, health, and environment program.
Forklift Safety in Safety, Health, and
Environment
 Regulate traffic between people and forklifts

 Educate and enforce safe driving of forklifts

 Equip all trucks with seatbelts and enforce their use

 Complete impact monitor implementation on all vehicles.

 Evaluate all battery charging areas

 Proper storage of pallets (not to exceed 16)

 Ergonomic Committee to assess material handling issues as
per Investigation Reports and make recommendations

 Ergonomic Assessments to be carried out for all high-risk

tasks

 Actions as per recommendations to be completed by Area
