positive outcome

A seeming positive outcome from what was hitherto a traumatic and unfortunate experience led Devaan Priscilla Jiwunde, the young woman who suffered the incident described earlier, to take her passion for safety in public places beyond a mere individual pursuit, to one to be driven through an institutionalised, functional and corporate structure.

Thus, Robert’s Walk Health and Safety Foundation was established and registered in November 2012 as a foundation to regularly educate the public about safety risks in public places, create awareness of the effects of such risks and actively advocate for the institution of global standards of safety in Public Places as a risk mitigating strategy for the prevention of injuries of persons who use these spaces.
“Don’t go through life with the psychological trauma that a sustained injury was your fault. Institutions need to be alert and acquire knowledge on what Public Place safety standards are, in order to check and eliminate hazards in these places, for the safety of everyone”

….the goals of Robert’s Walk;
Public Place hazards can cause devastating, life-altering injuries that could impede our ability to support the family and others dearest to us. In addition, the victim is also exposed to emotional, psychological and physiological traumas. Most often, extensive financial resources and sometimes life savings are expended on medical care especially when available allowances under health insurance may have been used up.

A recent research by Robert’s Walk revealed that there is legislation to protect the worker and the business owner from “work place injuries” through regulations generally categorised as Occupational Health and Safety Policies, but very little is actuated for the general public regarding their safety in such public places that could be called “non-work environment”. Robert’s Walk HSF was thus created with a unique goal of promoting awareness of the effects of safety hazards in the public places not addressed by the Occupational Health and Safety (OSHA) statutes and our major motivation is to ensure that safety principles are achieved for the benefit of everyone.

Our research also indicated that most hazard-induced accidents in Public Places are largely avertable. It is therefore our conviction that by liaising closely with OSHA, and other safety experts, we would be able to educate, promote, sensitize, and arouse compliance with safety measures and standards, and actively stimulate an improved consciousness towards safety best practices and potential injury sources in Public Places and Spaces. In addition, Robert’s Walk campaigns would provide Public Place caretakers with better awareness of proactive approaches that would ensure safer environments and reduced risks of injuries to persons.

Robert’s Walk raises the bar by actively promoting that designated Public Places should be made safe and conducive for the transaction of business or leisure by raising awareness beyond the bounds of the guidance available in OSHA Policies.

Our goals and objectives at Roberts Walk are therefore to:
• Promote a consciousness of safety and achieve hazard free Public Places for everyone;
• Stimulate awareness in Institutions, regarding the need to imbibe a culture of safety even without any action by an ombudsman;
• Publish and educate about safety measures, associated standards and benefits, with a view to underscoring the various risks of injuries;
• Sensitize about the importance of maintaining and implementing effective safety measures in Public Places towards injury prevention;
• Sensitize about the effects of safety hazards on lives;
• Illustrate via means of data collected from victims of Public Place hazard accidents, to underscore the need for regulations that would ensure the safety of everyone;
• Advocate for the formation of regulations which would ensure public place safety for everyone;
• Assist victims of Public Place safety hazards with rehabilitation workshops and advice.
• Carry out (in association with other experts) an assessment of selected Public Places and facilities to identify safety hazards and recommend mitigating action and publish results to enhance public awareness.

……the strategic team (Directors) behind Robert’s Walk;

Devaan Priscilla Jiwunde
Devaan is the founder of Robert’s Walk Health and Safety Foundation. Following a major trip and fall accident on May 23rd, 2008 in a public institution and the subsequent traumatic years to recovery, a passion for Public Place Safety was birthed in her.
Based on her experience, Devaan was propelled to bring the issues faced by victims of Public Place safety hazards to the front burner. While articulating these issues, she aims to educate and awaken in custodians of Public Places, the sense of responsibility to first keep their environments safe and then assist victims of the hazards within the Public Places they manage.
Devaan is a professional with a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree from the University of Jos, Nigeria.

…..your role in improving safety in public places, spaces and facilities;
Institutions can:
• Imbibe a culture of safety;
• Constantly evaluate their surroundings to identify elements that constitute risk of potential injury;
• Avoid practices that expose the public to potential hazards in your surroundings, promptly remove, alert, control or put effective measures in place to mitigate or eliminate a hazard;
• Assign dedicated personnel to manage risks in the public places within the establishment;

Individuals and Communities can;
• Alert the institutions where the hazards exist;
• Notify relevant authorities of these hazards for a follow up through helplines such as +234 ;
• Not conclude an injury was your fault; speak with relevant authorities if unsure; or Contact us

…..our annual activities plan for 2014/2015;
1. Safety awareness outreach programmes for 3 Private and Public Institutions by May 23rd 2015

2. Launch website by May 30, 2014; reach out to OSHA, HSE, and Slip Alert UK, to obtain standards to be published on website by Dec, 2014

3. Initiate and achieve 3 Radio talk shows, and 1 TV show by May 23rd 2015

4. Conduct surveys on 1000 persons, evaluate results

5. Apply results of surveys and recommend action by Dec, 2015 to achieve Public Place safety for everyone;

6. Evaluate data from surveys, extract relevant information, utilize data and organize a workshop by Dec. 2015; and

7. A Safety Awareness drive in the 2014 Abuja Guards Democracy day Polo Tournament Bulletin.
