Railway Conference – Improving health and safety: opportunities for collaboration
27 June 2024 | Hilton Leeds City, Neville Street, Leeds, LS1 4BX
Our Railway Group is delighted to bring you this one-day conference. The event is designed to share updates in the sector and will focus on:
- The importance of collaboration in the mitigation of risk
- Innovating for safety performance improvement
- Creating a positive health and safety culture
The conference will provide opportunities for all safety professionals to learn from railway-based examples.
Our high-quality speakers will share their observations, knowledge and insight. This is a chance to learn ways of improving in our own day-to-day decision making and safety performance. You’ll also get the chance to meet colleagues from across our industry for lively debate and the exchange of ideas.
These learning opportunities count towards your continuing professional development (CPD) and career development. There’s a conference app (Swapcard), which includes resources and the conference programme.
There will also be an opportunity to network with other professionals and explore the conference exhibition. The full programme and speaker information will be available shortly.

London North Eastern Railway
We’re supporting Rail Safety Week again this year. After the successful focus on train activity last year we’re moving our focus to stations.
This year we are undertaking a series of roadshows covering all 14 of our stations. During the roadshows our Executive Team and senior management from across the business, supported by the Safety and Environment Team will be positioned to meet colleagues and talk to them about Safety. Other managers will be undertaking walkabouts at the same time, speaking to colleagues about issues as they appear.
During the week competent managers will be undertaking deep dive safety inspections to identify hazards and take forward action plans with station management teams to deliver on solutions.
All through the week every manager will collate and provide feedback on their visit via MS forms to the S&E Team so that we can take forward good ideas and fix problems, providing teams with a “you said, we did” update in the weeks and months after RSW 2024. The week will be supported by a competition to award great ideas to improve safety with a prize.

Slip Safety Services
Rail Safety Week: Slips, Trips & Falls Prevention Masterclass (12:30 – 13:30 on 26 June – online)
Let’s reduce slips, trips and falls in our railways in this Rail Safety Week webclass 🚆 ⚠️
Slips, trips and falls is a big challenge for the rail industry:
❌ 66% of severe passenger injuries are slips, trips and falls (ORR data)
❌ Network Rail paid out £1m+ over 5 years on slips, trips and falls claims
However, it’s more than possible to use science to significantly reduce the number of incidents, injuries and claims:
✅ Euston station recorded a 60% reduction in incidents year-on-year with a focussed effort on cleaning for slip safety, not just aesthetics
Join this Rail Safety Week Slips, Trips and Falls Prevention Masterclass to:
➡️ Guarantee to reduce your slip risk by 50,000x
➡️ Mitigate the risk of trips with a 4-step process
➡️ Discover how to achieve a 57%+ reduction in slip incidents
➡️ Be certain your floors have less than a 1 in 1 million slip risk
