We're proud to be supporting Rail Safety Week 2026 🦺

Rail Safety Week is an industry wide initiative that brings the rail sector together to promote one of the most important aspects of our industry: keeping people safe.

Whether you work on the railway, travel by train, or live alongside the network, rail safety affects us all. And this year's campaign highlights the importance of collaboration across the industry, with organisations of all sizes coming together to raise awareness, share best practices, and reinforce the message that safety is everyone's responsibility.

For us, safety sits at the heart of everything we do. From supplying competent safety-critical personnel and supporting fatigue management, to carrying out welfare checks and ensuring compliance across every project, we're committed to maintaining the highest standards for our people, our clients, and the wider public.

This week is a great opportunity to shine a spotlight on the work being done across the industry to prevent accidents, reduce risk, and create safer working environments for everyone. Together, we're helping to build a safer railway!

This week marks Community Rail Week 2026, celebrating the incredible role community rail plays in connecting people, supporting local communities, and making rail travel more inclusive and accessible for everyone!

This year’s theme, ‘Journeys for All’ highlights the importance of breaking down barriers and ensuring rail continues to bring people and places together across Britain.

We’re proud to support the wider rail network across the South West and South Wales, helping keep infrastructure safe, reliable and ready for the communities that rely on it every day. Behind every journey is a huge network of people working to maintain, improve and support the railway, from frontline operational teams to safety-critical staff working in live rail environments.

Community rail plays a vital role in encouraging sustainable travel, strengthening local connections and creating opportunities for people across the country, and it’s great to see the industry celebrating the positive impact rail continues to have on everyday lives.

So here’s to the people, partnerships and projects that help keep the railway moving for everyone!

Working in warm weather doesn’t just take a toll on the body it affects alertness, concentration, and reaction times too! 👀

When you’re operating heavy machinery, working trackside, or even just moving between jobs in the heat, fatigue can quietly creep in and that’s when mistakes are most likely to happen.

Here’s how we’re encouraging our teams to stay one step ahead of fatigue during the heatwave this week:

💤 Prioritise rest: Make sure you’re well rested before heading to site. Even mild tiredness can impair judgement.

🌡️ Watch for heat and fatigue: High temperatures increase the risk of dehydration and exhaustion, both of which can lead to reduced awareness and slower reflexes.

🗣️ Speak up: If you or a teammate feels fatigued or unwell, stop and report it. Your safety comes first!

Fatigue isn’t just about feeling tired, it’s a serious safety factor on the tracks!

As temperatures continue to rise across the UK, working safely in hot conditions becomes even more important, especially in safety-critical rail environments where PPE is essential at all times.

While PPE protects against site hazards, it can also make working in the heat more demanding, increasing the risk of dehydration, fatigue and heat stress if teams aren’t careful, which is why we encourage our teams to take extra precautions during warmer weather, including:

💧 Staying hydrated throughout shifts

🧢 Taking regular breaks where possible

🌡 Monitoring for signs of heat exhaustion and fatigue

👷 Wearing the correct PPE properly, without compromising safety

🤝 Looking out for teammates and speaking up if something doesn’t feel right

Hot weather can impact concentration, alertness and overall wellbeing which is why planning, communication and welfare checks are so important during these warmer working conditions.

Safety always comes first, whatever the weather!

We’re delighted to welcome Stuart Kennedy to Forza Rail as our new Rail Director! 🎉

With a wealth of industry knowledge and over 12 years’ experience supplying staff to the railway, Stu brings valuable expertise, strong relationships, and a deep understanding of what it takes to support successful project delivery within live rail environments.

We believe that delivery is only as strong as the people behind it, which is why our culture is built around safety, support, and high standards.

We place real importance on looking after our teams, not just deploying them, and that means:

💤 Fatigue management: We recognise the risks that come with long shifts, demanding environments, and early starts. Monitoring fatigue and encouraging open conversations helps keep our teams alert and safe on site.

🤝 Regular welfare checks: We stay connected with our workforce throughout their placements, ensuring wellbeing is supported, and any issues are picked up early.

🎓 Training and competence: We ensure every individual is fully qualified, competent, and prepared for the role they are stepping into because safety-critical environments demand nothing less.

For us, these aren’t tick-box exercises; they’re part of how we operate every day because when people are supported properly, projects are delivered safely, reliably, and to the highest standard.

Looking for reliable rail workforce support when it matters most?

In rail delivery challenges don’t wait, and neither do programme pressures. Whether it’s:

→ Last minute labour requirements

→ Safety-critical staffing gaps

→ Tight deadlines on live projects

→ Fluctuating resource demands across multiple sites

Having the right support in place quickly can make all the difference in keeping projects on track!

We provide flexible managed contingent labour and safety-critical personnel across the South West of England and South Wales. Our teams are experienced in live operational rail environments, meaning they can integrate quickly, work safely, and support delivery without disruption.

We focus on providing the right people, with the right competencies, exactly when they’re needed, helping principal contractors maintain momentum and meet programme demands with confidence. If you need dependable workforce support for your next project, we’re ready to help, simply reach out to [email protected]

Today marks ‘World Day for Safety and Health at Work’, a reminder that safety isn’t just about physical risks on site, but also about how work is designed, managed and supported every day.

The psychosocial working environment plays a major role in how people experience their work. Factors like workload, working time, role clarity, communication, support, and fair processes all influence not only performance, but overall safety, health and wellbeing.

When these factors are not managed effectively, they can become real workplace hazards, just as significant as physical, chemical or biological risks. That’s why a prevention focused approach is so important, looking at how work is organised at every level: from individual roles, to day-to-day management, through to wider company practices and procedures.

We take health and safety extremely seriously, whether it’s on-site or behind the scenes, we’re committed to creating an environment where our people feel supported, informed and able to carry out their roles safely and effectively.

Safe delivery isn’t just about systems and processes, it’s about the people!

25/04/2026

Did you know that more than 1.7 billion passenger journeys are made on the UK rail network every year!

That’s millions of people relying on the railway every single day - commuting to work, travelling for business, visiting family, and keeping the country connected.

Behind every one of those journeys is a great deal of planning, maintenance and on-the-ground support to keep the network safe, reliable and moving efficiently. From infrastructure upgrades to ongoing civils and safety-critical works, it takes a coordinated effort from thousands of skilled professionals across the industry.

And we’re proud to play our part by supplying managed contingent labour and safety-critical support across the South West and South Wales. Our teams work in live operational environments, helping ensure the network continues to perform safely under constant demand, because when the railway runs smoothly, everything else can too!
