Request for Strike Data 2017/18

7/5/2019

0 Comments

 
Thank you for your commitment to ensure the highest standards of safety and best practice when carrying out essential work to avoid utility strikes. As part of this drive, USAG produces an Annual Report on Utility Strikes to highlight trends in asset damage throughout the UK; a concept based on international best practice. The drivers for this are to help all stakeholders improve by recognising best practice, reduce damages and delays and, most importantly, increase the safety of people working near utilities. Data collection templates and guidance can be found here. All data will be anonymised and a Non-Disclosure Agreement is available upon request. 

We thank you in advance for your help; the deadline date for return of 2017 & 2018 information is 07 June 2019.  Your efforts to keep to this deadline are appreciated as it will enable the finalised reports for both 2017 and 2018 to be compiled and made available in the coming months for the good of the whole industry. Should you have any questions please email Richard Broome, Head of Data and Reporting Group.
