Safety is a core value of the ECA WA organisation. We are uncompromising in our commitment to the health, safety and welfare of our employees, customers, and community. It is our driving force and is fundamental to the way we work.
Our No Harm vision promotes a working environment ensuring the safety and well-being of all employees of ECA WA, and recognises hosts, supervisors, tradespersons, and employees who contribute and show a commitment to our vision.
WSP Services have implemented an integrated risk management system which incorporates their SOPs and SWMSs into their task-based risk management processes. This process helps make work execution safer for all.

Rebekah Palezza is a second-year EGT apprentice who has received a NO HARM award for exhibiting behaviours aligned with our vision.
Rebekah showed her strength of commitment and integrity at work by raising an issue which her host employer has acknowledged and actioned, resulting in a safer workplace for all.
Bailey Dalton, a second-year apprentice hosted by EDC electrical, has received a NO HARM award for exhibiting behaviours aligned with our vision.
Bailey has been recognised by ECA WA for his commitment to his site’s safety program. When the site owner requested each contractor supply a representative to accompany them on site safety inspections and the resolution of site issues, Bailey volunteered and has since been active in the role.
Bree Bayliss, who is a first-year apprentice hosted by Mason Electrical Engineering Contractors, has received a NO HARM award for exhibiting behaviours aligned with our vision.
Bree has been recognised by ECA WA, her host employer and the head contractor on the site on which she was working, for her continual thoroughness and identification of risks and hazards. Added to this, whilst completing a Take 5 she identified a typically overlooked hazard and put in place measures to mitigate the risk of potential injury.
CPR Electrical Services have received a NO HARM award for their commitment and contribution to our NO HARM vision. Two of the major contributors to injuries incurred by our apprentice workforce is the failure to recognise or mitigate workplace hazards and risks.
They have implemented and maintained formal documented processes that not only periodically assess the apprentice’s attitude to safety but also trains and assesses their ability to recognise and mitigate workplace hazards and risks.
Callan O'Connor is a second-year EGT apprentice who is hosted by JW Electrical Contractors and has received a NO HARM award for exhibiting behaviours aligned with our vision.
Callan identified and raised the issue of a lack of drinking water and unhygienic toilet conditions on the site he was working, at which allowed JW Electrical Contractors to initiate the mitigation process with the builder and have the site conditions rectified.
