Wagga Wagga Showground 11â12 May 2011 - Essential Energy

Wagga Wagga Showground 11–12 May 2011 

Hosted by: 

In association with the Industry 

Safety Steering Committee of NSW 

(Department of Trade & Investment, 

Regional Infrastructure & Services)

Welcome to Wagga Wagga 

ISSC Member Organisations 

I’d like to take the opportunity to welcome you to the safety event of the year – the 2011 Electricity Supply Industry 

Field Days, which Essential Energy is presenting with the New South Wales Industry Safety Steering Committee. 

This year, perhaps like never before, our industry has pulled together to assist each other through some of the worst 

natural disasters Australia has experienced. 

Field crews, safety specialists and more have worked shoulder to shoulder in times of need to make safe and restore 

supply to tens of thousands of customers. 

This kind of cooperation is possible because we all have safety as our main focus – the safety of our employees and 

that of the public. 

Training for emergencies and to carry out day to day tasks safely is another reason why we can all come together when 

needed – training ensures we’re all on the same page when it comes to getting our employees home safely every day. 

The 2011 Electricity Supply Industry Field Days will provide a unique opportunity to share knowledge, develop ideas 

and to sharpen existing skills and safe work practices. 

To better reflect the reality of our everyday work practices and the emergency situations our employees are asked to 

respond to, Essential Energy has redesigned the team challenges as tests representative of realistic work activities. 

The event will also include demonstrations, workshops, an exhibition, and hands-on activities for all participants and 

visitors, and there is a clear focus on health. 

Essential Energy believes safety is everyone’s responsibility, so please make the most of the challenges the teams’ events 

throw up and take full advantage of all the products and services on offer at the 2011 Electricity Supply Industry Field Days. 

On behalf of Essential Energy, thank you for your attendance – I wish you luck in the challenges and above all hope you 

have a great, safe time at the Field Days.

A practical demonstration on how a fun night out with friends and co-workers involving alcohol 

and other drugs can affect an employee’s job performance and the overall work environment. 

The Fatal Vision® Simulator Goggles will be used for demonstrating this principle. 

Presented by Elaine Lensing, Drug and Alcohol Project Coordinator, Essential Energy 

Elaine has held a number of roles during her 20 years at Essential Energy and is currently 

overseeing the introduction of random drug and alcohol testing across the organisation. 

In the Moment 

Most of us instinctively link cause and effect; we know that for every action there is a reaction. 

Our work environment highlights this every day. Something happens, someone says or does 

something and that triggers us to feel a certain way or to do a certain thing. 

Sometimes our responses are helpful and other times they make the situation worse. What if 

you had the ability to control your reactions, if you could find a way to remove the frustrations 

you experience caused by others? What if your response had a positive impact and you were 

seen as a skilled influencer? 

In this interesting and interactive seminar, you will develop the skills and knowledge needed to 

become that person! 

Presented by Trina Skidmore, Senior Facilitator, PROGRESSION HR & Training 

Trina is a highly skilled organisational development consultant and facilitator with over 20 years 

experience across a wide range of industries. Trina is renowned for her innovative, inspiring 

& business focused approach and will ensure you leave the seminar armed with new skills 

to improve your personal effectiveness. 

Lightning Safety Awareness 

A very popular and engaging seminar that always draws a crowd when conducted. It shows quite 

graphically the dangers of lightning, explains its mechanism and how it interacts with the electricity 

distribution system. It also provides survival tips for outdoor workers. 

Presented by Professor Leith Elder, Principle Engineer, Essential Energy 

Leith has been an electrical engineer for over 45 years and has designed building light and power 

installations, diesel generation stations, uninterruptible power supplies, frequency converters, 

distribution substations, zone substations, underground cable networks, overhead line networks, 

protection systems, earthing systems. 

He was recently appointed a Visiting Professorial Fellow at the University of Wollongong. 

Emergency Preparedness 

During the recent major floods and bushfires around Australia, including significant flooding in 

the Riverina Murray region, concerns were raised that some individuals hadn’t received enough 

information from emergency services, or were given information too late. 

So what goes on behind the scenes of an emergency or natural disaster, as the combat agencies 

– the State Emergency Service, Rural Fire Service etc. – plan how to deal with the emergency itself 

and the people and property it will affect? 

The seminar explains how the various warning systems work, and why it’s important to listen to the 

emergency services 

Presented by Owen Plowman, District Emergency Management Officer, Emergency 

Management NSW 

Employed by NSW Police Force, Owen Plowman has been the District Emergency Management 

Officer (DEMO) for the twelve Riverina local government areas that are situated within South West 

Emergency Management District since 2003. Previous professional experience includes Fire & 

Rescue Services and Emergency & Safety Management within the Victorian Power Industry and 

several Australian Defence Force bases.

Small Scale Embedded Generation – The Journey So Far 

A discussion of Essential Energy’s experience with small scale generation applications and installation, 

focusing on some of the peculiarities uncovered to date with relation to rural installations and installers 

coming in from outside the area. The seminar will include questions from the floor and discuss issues 

including apparent voltage rise, lack of available capacity and hidden costs to customers. 

Presented by Steve Gough, Group Manager Technical Services, Essential Energy 

Steve has held a number of roles within Essential Energy during his 20 years with the organisation, 

in areas such as customer connection, contractor accreditation, network planning, system 

operations and subtransmission design construction and maintenance. He has also been actively 

involved in the approval processes for small scale generation within the company. Although no 

longer directly involved in the connection process for small renewables, Steve remains a subject 

matter expert within the company in these areas. 

Zero in on Shoulders 

Shoulders rank among the joints subject to the highest rates of injury, particularly for those who 

perform overhead work on a regular basis. 

This seminar will teach participants about the structure of the shoulder joint – how the joint works 

and what could go wrong. There will be an opportunity to test how good YOUR shoulders actually 

are and some basic exercises and stretches to help avoid problems. 

Presented by Alison Thomas, Senior Regional Health Coordinator, Essential Energy 

Alison is a qualified physiotherapist with over 30 years of clinical experience in injury management 

and treatment. She has been with Essential Energy for four years based in Lismore. She has a 

Masters Degree in Pain Management and has devised a program for prevention of shoulder injuries. 

Mate Helping Mate 

After experiencing depression himself, farmer John Harper began actively promoting awareness 

about the need for mental wellbeing in times of stress and anxiety. In 2006, he established a 

grassroots program, called Mate Helping Mate, based on social and creative self-help strategies 

for managing difficult rimes. The program recognises the importance of mateship. 

Presented by John Harper, Farmer & Mental Health Advocate 

John Harper is a dryland wheat/sheep farmer from Stockinbingal. Stockinbingal lies between 

Temora and Cootamundra, NSW. Married with three daughters John’s simple goal in life was to 

be a better than average farmer and hand over the family farm in good condition to his children. 

Depression nearly destroyed John’s opportunity to fulfil this simple goal. 

Having no formal qualifications in mental health John speaks from personal experience. John 

experienced depression and spent some time reflecting on the impact and the remedies of poor 

mental well-being. He is convinced that simple philosophies and strategies, combined with an 

awareness of the importance of mental well-being, can prevent individuals sliding into depression. 

Metabolic Edge 

A healthy metabolism is essential to stay in good shape. Learn the facts and the myths 

surrounding metabolic rate. How does meal timing, movement, muscle mass and more, make a 

difference? Find out how to fire up your metabolic furnace to burn more calories, lower blood 

sugars and feel fantastic. 

Presented by Matt O’Neill, Chief Jumpstarter, Metabolic Jumpstart 

Matt is a leading Dietician and inspiring speaker. He is the regular Nutritionist on Chanel 7’s 

Sunrise and Morning Shows, with several hundred thousand viewers receiving his positive 

nutrition messages every week. 

Matt is a key influencer who will ensure that you are informed and energised to make positive, 

sustainable changes to your lifestyle. 

What could possibly go wrong? We thought we were managing risk 

Lieutenant Colonel Tony Mitchell will share his observations about what can go wrong with the 

application of risk management on the ground. He will detail his tips and tricks for making risk 

management real; worth the time and resulting in obvious benefits to users and others in the 

organisation. 

Presented by Lieutenant Colonel Tony Mitchell, Royal Australian Army 

Lieutenant Colonel Tony Mitchell is a Project Director in the Army Operations Branch of Army 

Headquarters. He is responsible for the design and implementation of the Military Risk 

Management framework for the Royal Australian Army. 

Tony has been one of the prime architects of the framework and is critically aware of ‘what could 

possibly go wrong’ with the application of risk management in large high risk organisations. He has 

been responsible for the review of risk management plans for a broad range of activities. He has 

provided risk management comment as an expert witness to a number of Military Boards of Inquiry 

into training fatalities and serious personnel injuries. He is also acutely aware of the problems that 

can occur with design and application of the risk management process at the user level.
