that will contribute to the risk being eliminated or mitigated.
Table 1
GMR 1 Risk Prompts: PART A - Alignment with organisation risk appetite
These GMR 1 risk prompts are to be assessed at the ‘Go/No Go’ stage for new work and investment opportunities and are to be
monitored during the conversion process (prior to deal commitment or bid submission) as part of determining if the new work or
investment opportunity is consistent with the Lendlease risk appetite framework. All applicable risk prompts require actions to be
generated to eliminate or mitigate the risk.
PART A. BUSINESS LEVEL RISK (Does the opportunity fit with our risk appetite?)
Risk Category Risks Requiring Identification and Actions
Geography Country, city, jurisdiction (i.e. LL experience/capability)

• Local legislation or enforcement practices are not fully aligned with implementing Lendlease GMRs in full.
• The new work or investment opportunity is not in a city with an existing Lendlease office and/or is
located remotely (e.g. 2+ hours or more door-to-door from the Lendlease office that would be providing
management oversight).
Sector e.g. UR, Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Retail, Education, Telco, Civil, Defence, Healthcare etc
• Lendlease have not worked in this sector in this geography previously.
• Local supply chain custom and practice for EH&S (e.g. high-risk activities, equipment, worker welfare)
differs from GMR-compliant practices.
Contract/Role Type e.g. Dev’t, CM, PM, D&C, PC, JV, Construct only, FM, Consulting, IM, Client etc.
• The Lendlease role or contract type (or a lack of clarity around roles & responsibilities) inhibits full
operational control of all EH&S practices.
• Lendlease have not worked for this client or consortium previously.
Scale Contract size, site footprint, proposed building scale/height, workforce numbers.
• The financial value or physical dimensions of the proposed works (footprint, floor space, structural height
etc.) represents a significant risk to develop, construct, manage or maintain.
• There will be a peak workforce of over 1,000 persons on site.
Complexity Engineering/construction difficulty, latent conditions, stakeholder issues.

• The opportunity has significant engineering/technical challenges (e.g. as identified by assessing the
technical or engineering complexity related to one or more of the 13 Acute High Risk Activities listed in
GMR 2.3.3).
• The opportunity has significant stakeholder management challenges and/or ethical investment issues
(e.g. community/political opposition, industrial relations, climate risk, environmental or social risk).
Table 2
GMR 1 Risk Prompts: PART B – Operational risk: roles and responsibilities
These GMR 1 risk prompts are to be assessed prior to deal commitment or bid submission and are to be monitored until site
commencement. All applicable risks require actions to be generated to eliminate or mitigate the risk.
PART B. OPERATION-SPECIFIC RISK – FIXED (Do the project specifics inhibit GMR implementation?)
Design Control Lendlease ability to control/influence project design and constructability

• Lendlease does not have control or influence of any of the following - concept design and/or detailed
design and/or construction methodology and/or facility operations and maintenance outcomes.
• Design will be incomplete before works commences or product selection issues have not been resolved
(e.g. combustible materials).
Approvals and Project planning & approvals/consent/conditions (e.g. remediation)

Conditions
• National or local environmental/planning approvals for the new work or investment opportunity (or for
component elements, e.g. traffic management) represent significant time, cost or risk challenges if not
resolved satisfactorily.
• Latent environment conditions and/or conditions of consent (e.g. contamination, remediation,
occupational health risks) present significant challenges to the successful delivery of the proposed project
or asset.
Lendlease Team Lendlease team capability/availability, required management oversight

and Oversight
• The preferred experience or quantity of Lendlease team members to oversee the project or asset (related
to the scale and complexity) has not yet been achieved or confirmed.
• Significant numbers/frequency of assurance and leadership oversight/visits will be required for delivery of
the project or asset.
Supply Chain Supply chain experience/capability to meet Lendlease standards

Capability
• Some key supply chain partners have no experience of working with Lendlease and/or consistently
meeting the GMRs.
• Some (or all) works to be awarded to a 3rd party General/Main Contractor and/or Lendlease will not have
full visibility over supply chain procurement or labour hire practices.
Adjacency Risk Risk from neighbouring projects/activities, logistics & interface issues
• Proximity hazards exist from neighbouring or adjacent activities, facilities or environments.
• Public interface management is required for traffic management, lifting, or permanent/temporary

structural works.
Table 3
GMR 1 Risk Prompts: PART C – Operational risk: change management
These GMR 1 risk prompts are to be assessed before deal commitment or bid submission and monitored throughout operational
delivery (e.g. Projects in Delivery – PiD). All applicable risk scenarios require actions to be generated to eliminate or mitigate the risk.
PART C. OPERATION-SPECIFIC RISK – DYNAMIC (Do project changes impact on safe work delivery?)
Scope Change Changes in design, commercial arrangements, roles and responsibilities or project deliverables
• There has been a change in scope related to design or procurement requiring revision to the project or
operational plan.
• There are unapproved scope changes requiring resolution.
Schedule Delays to design/procurement/construction schedules

• There are fixed project delivery date(s) with large penalties for delays.
• The programme has been delayed and is >30days behind schedule for design and/or procurement
and/or delivery.
Budget/Costs Adverse changes in strike GPM/cashflow/contingency/budget availability.

• Cost Plans or Capex budget does not allow for achieving preferred standards of equipment, worker
facilities, or levels of supervision.
• There has been a significant regression in either the projected profit, cashflow, or available contingency
budget reported for the operation.
Resourcing Lendlease and/or supply chain resource availability or supervision levels

• Lendlease team do not have sufficient resources to meet the preferred levels of oversight/supervision for
all areas and/or operating hours (e.g. weekends and/or night shift).
• Supply chain resourcing for supervision of high-risk activities is not adequate (i.e. not of sufficiently quality
or quantity and not with ratio of at least 1:8).
Morale Project and/or individual hours of work, morale/culture, safety performance

• Workers are required on the site more than 5 days per 7 days, workers are required to work >60 hours per
week, worker shifts are required >12 hours per day, or extra work is required on weekends or double-shifts,
or arrangements are required for workers to fly in and out, or drive in and drive out.
• Appropriate welfare facilities (as outlined in GMR 3) or required learning and development programs are
not being provided.

4.2 FALL OF MATERIAL/OBJECT

Description
These critical controls and performance standards apply to events caused by work from an edge of a floor not fully enclosed,
inadequate design or installation, high wind, work outside edge protection, inappropriate storage of items, disturbance or demolition
leading to a falling object and/or failure of a load. This event is inclusive of works on penetrations/voids, MEWPs, building maintenance
works, temporary working platforms (scaffold), demolition, deconstruction, abatement or structural alteration works where the potential
for material or objects to fall has been identified. Note: GMRs 4.6 crane and hoisting equipment incident and 4.17 failure of fixtures or

4.2.5 Exclusion Zones
Control
An adequate exclusion zone must be in place whenever overhead
work has the potential for tools, materials, objects or equipment
to fall.
i) Exclusion zones must be established below or around all areas
where there is a risk of people being struck by falling materials
(e.g. below works on the cladding of a building, around mobile
crane works, loading/unloading activities, atriums and MEWPs
in use).
ii) Exclusion zones must be of adequate size, take into account
the risks such as potential arc of fall, deflections and bounce
distances, be delineated by physical barriers and have clear
signage prohibiting unauthorised entry. The integrity of any
exclusion zones must be regularly checked.
iii) Under no circumstance may a person enter an exclusion zone
whilst work is being carried out overhead.
4.2.6 Secondary Protection or Catch Measures

Control
Overhead protection must be installed where the risk of falling
objects exists and wherever a public interface on site exists.
i) Identify in construction and asset works any scenarios where
overhead protection must be installed, particularly where an
engineering control preventing the fall of material cannot be
implemented, people below cannot be completely excluded,
enclosure or tether/lanyard requirements cannot be met, or
where an object’s mass, positioning or height from next floor
level could cause a fatal injury if it fell onto a person.
ii) For all structural work on any vertical progressive multi-storey
construction, a secondary catch system (e.g. a diaper net,
catch fan, horizontally projecting net or any other structurally
designed element) must be positioned immediately below any
areas where this work is being undertaken above (e.g. at the
level just below the screens) and the application must consider
the arc of any potential fall of material.
iii) Where there is the potential for members of the public and/
or workers to be impacted by a fall of material, a designed
and engineered overhead protection (e.g. crash deck) must
be appropriately positioned and of adequate strength and
coverage taking into account potential material types and the
arc of any potential fall of material.
iv) Overhead protection or catch systems must be designed to
avoid failure due to impact with the object it will intercept as a
result of over spilling, puncture holes, melting by hot objects,
corrosion or overload by weather events (e.g. seasonal
maximum wind, rain, hail or snow).
v) Provide details of how the safe retrieval of a fallen object from
overhead protection or catch systems will be achieved.

4.14 VEHICLE AND PLANT INCIDENT (PUBLIC AREAS)

Description
These critical controls apply to the movement of both public and Lendlease vehicles on any Lendlease controlled operating asset (e.g.
retail, residential, commercial parking and public vehicle access areas). They also include the use of any Lendlease tool of trade vehicles
on public roads where a fatality could occur. They do not cover construction site vehicle traffic or Lendlease heavy equipment. They
also do not include personal small vehicles such as bicycles, customer low speed car park manoeuvres or single drop delivery drivers.
Where the operation has exposure to risks of vehicle and plant incidents on the work sites (including temporary sites on roadsides) as
well as public interface, refer also to the requirements of GMR 4.3).

4.20 ESSENTIAL SERVICE FAILURE

Description
These critical controls apply to both essential services in operating assets and where essential services are required for ongoing
construction operations and interruption could lead to fatal outcomes. It is not intended to apply to circumstances where the
consequence of interruption to the essential service results in business continuity or reputational disruption only.
Potential Impacts
Potential Causes People

A Inadequate design and procurement of member of the public. Permanently disabling

4.20.3 System of Work To be assessed by region, business unit or

operation as appropriate.
Risk Event Preventative Controls

4.20.1 Identification and Testing
i) All services that could pose a risk to life in the event of failure
(e.g. electricity in hospitals and emergency lighting in offices,
fire detection systems in a building, fire suppression systems
(dousing) in a hanger or a commercial kitchen) must be
assessed and a back-up plan developed. An assessment of
the type of facility must be conducted to consider what is an
essential life service. Back-up systems (e.g. diesel generators)
must be designed and installed for critical/essential services.
ii) Before acquiring an asset, identify all essential services
and back-up systems and verify their current condition
and reliability. Where no records are available, or they are
incomplete, project lead for the transaction should perform
testing to ascertain the reliability of the system during the Due
Diligence period. If the system is proven to be unreliable and
warrants replacement, recommendations shall be highlighted
so that a plan can be developed inclusive of the cost
considerations for the transaction.
iii) Maintenance and testing programs must be in place for all
essential services and that the back-up system(s) is suitable,
including periodic third-party inspection and examination.
4.20.2 Installation and Commissioning

i) Procure only from suppliers who can demonstrate a positive
EH&S performance record for installation and commissioning
of the type of system required.
ii) The design of essential service systems must be in accordance
local legislative requirements. Where required, they must be
subjected to 3rd Party reviews.
iii) Essential service systems are installed as per their design
and engineering. There must be a suitable quality plan that
includes how staff are to be adequately trained to operate the
system in the event alarms/warning system for failure, or in
the event of an actual failure.
4.20.3 System of Work

i) Manage the safety of maintenance and testing of essential
services by following the controls specified in alignment with
GMR 4.4 uncontrolled release of electrical energy and 4.15
uncontrolled release of stored energy (non-electrical). Such
maintenance and testing protocols must be in compliance
with local legislative requirements.
