PPWD recently worked with a Train Operating Company to deliver a number of fully integrated Fair Culture change programmes. These programmes resulted in more than a 50% reduction in operational incidents over a 5-year period.

The release and training costs were offset by the savings generated by incident reductions. ROI in Year 1 of 1.4 and then in Year 2 of 4.7 have been generated based on a reduction in incident costs and fines.
