Airport Baggage Handling Specialists

Glidepath employee Dean Adams, Airport Services Manager of the Perth Airport baggage handling system has been awarded second place in the Work Safety Awards WA 2014.

The title of the award category; ‘Best individual contribution to safety and health by a person with no formal responsibilities for occupational safety and health’, sums up the enthusiasm and ingenuity Dean applies to his role. Dean proactively worked to improve Glidepath’s Safety Management System and procedures in Perth with the aim of standardising them for operations in Australia, New Zealand and the rest of the world.

He also introduced a number of new ideas.  One such innovation has been the development and introduction of a QR code reader application whereby every piece of equipment is assigned a QR code. When an employee has to work on this equipment they can scan the QR code and it will automatically open the Safe Work Method Statement, fault finding trees, or instructional videos for maintenance or repair.
