About this Event

Spot It. Report It. Share It.


Non-conforming cargo and supply chain hazards continue to present significant risks across our industry. From poor packaging and load restraint failures to documentation issues, incorrect labelling, PDOs and damaged materials, these hazards can lead to serious incidents if not identified, reported, and acted upon consistently.


Join us for the launch of the Supply Chain Hazards Initiative, a collaborative industry effort focused on identifying, communicating, and reducing supply chain hazards through shared learning, greater awareness, and practical action. The initiative brings together operators, contractors, logistics providers, service companies, and industry partners to strengthen safety performance across the supply chain.


The session will open with the launch of the new "Spot It. Report It. Share It." awareness animation, designed to highlight the risks associated with non-conforming cargo and the importance of consistent reporting and industry collaboration.


What we'll cover

Current and emerging supply chain hazards affecting the industry.

The importance of the OEUK Packaging and Handling of Cargo Guidance in preventing incidents.

How Non-Conformance Reporting (NCR) Codes provide a common language for identifying trends and sharing learning.

Opportunities for organisations to contribute anonymised non-conformance data to support industry-wide learning and improvement.

Discussion on a proposed practical industry workshop later this year, including demonstrations, case studies, and collaborative learning opportunities.

Who should attend?


This session is relevant to anyone involved in the supply chain, including:


Operators

Contractors

Logistics providers

Service companies

Cargo and logistics specialists

HSE professionals

Supply chain managers

Industry bodies and stakeholders


The forum is intended to be collaborative, practical, and non-blame focused, providing an opportunity to share experiences, discuss challenges, and help shape future industry activity.


What you will gain


By attending, you'll gain a better understanding of current supply chain hazards, learn how consistent reporting can drive meaningful industry insights, and have the opportunity to influence future work aimed at preventing incidents and improving safety performance across the supply chain.


Together, we can turn observations into insight, and insight into prevention. Spot it. Report it. Share it.
