Launching the AMO Health & Safety Forum

Strengthening safety leadership across the metering sector

The Association of Meter Operators (AMO) is proud to announce the launch of its new Health & Safety Forum — a dedicated platform for collaboration, learning, and leadership on safety and welfare across the energy metering sector.

As the industry continues to evolve, so too do the risks, responsibilities, and expectations placed on organisations and individuals. The AMO Health & Safety Forum has been established to ensure members have the space, support, and collective insight needed to stay ahead of these challenges and continue driving safer outcomes for everyone involved.

Inaugural meeting – 12 March, Birmingham

The first meeting of the Health & Safety Forum will take place on 12 March, kindly hosted at Talan’s Birmingham office. This inaugural session marks the beginning of an important new chapter for the AMO’s work on health, safety, and wellbeing.

A forum built around real-world challenges

The Health & Safety Forum will focus on a broad and relevant range of safety and welfare topics, reflecting both current priorities and emerging risks across the energy system. Areas of focus will include:

  • Safety leadership and culture – strengthening leadership behaviours and embedding positive safety cultures
  • Regulatory engagement – supporting clear, consistent dialogue with regulators and policymakers
  • Standards, guidance, and consistency – promoting aligned approaches and best practice across the sector
  • Data, insight, and learning – sharing intelligence, trends, and lessons learned
  • Workforce competence and capability – supporting safe, skilled, and confident operational teams
  • Public and consumer safety – protecting customers and maintaining trust
  • Collaboration across the energy system – working together across organisational boundaries
  • Future risk and transition readiness – preparing for change, innovation, and the Net Zero transition

By addressing safety holistically — from leadership and systems to people and public impact — the forum will help members move beyond compliance and towards continuous improvement.

Bringing the right voices into the room

Members are strongly encouraged to invite colleagues from operational management and Health & Safety teams to attend the forum. Bringing together operational and H&S perspectives will help ensure discussions are practical, grounded in frontline experience, and focused on solutions that work in the real world.

The forum is designed to be inclusive, constructive, and collaborative — a place where challenges can be shared openly and learning can be accelerated across the membership.

Working together for safer outcomes

Through shared insight, open discussion, and collective leadership, the AMO Health & Safety Forum will play a key role in identifying emerging risks, promoting best practice, and supporting safer outcomes for the workforce, customers, and the wider energy system.

This forum reinforces the AMO’s commitment to health, safety, and wellbeing as fundamental pillars of a strong, responsible, and future‑ready metering sector.

Please RSVP to the AMO team to confirm your attendance.
We look forward to welcoming members and colleagues to the first meeting and to shaping the forum together.
