HINDI IMPLEMENTATION:
90% of staff are working in Bilingual and Hindi meetings are being conducted every 3 months. Diesel Loco Shed, Kazipet achieved first prize during Hindi exhibition on 26.10.2010 for implementation of Hindi as RajyaBhasha in SC Division.

HIGHLIGHTS AND INITIATIVES
HIGHLIGHTS • During year 2016-17, the availability is maintained above 5.30 % over the Target.
• During year 2016-17, the ineffective %age is contained below 4.42 % as against the permissible limit of 10%.
• Fabrication of links for Wheel lifting & Equipment for wheel floating in event of Locked axle/ Break down of Locomotive wheels
Cases of locked axle failure of locomotive are occasionally encountered on-line while on run due to bearing failures. This may cause blocking of the section affecting punctuality of trains. This has to be attended by the nearest loco shed staff either by extracting traction motor pinion in the event of Motor seizure or by floating the affected wheel in case of Axle box seizure.
Floating the affected wheel of the loco is a quick method to clear the section in minimum time. Shed has developed links of blocks of standard dimensions for all types of locomotives and kept by ART/KZJ.
A three days demonstration was also organized by ART/KZJ of DSL/KZJ to all the ART and Shed staff of SCR.
The 5S system of work place management has been implemented at DLS/KZJ. With 5S principles at work place, unnecessary wastage in terms of material, time and man power was avoided, there by resulting in optimum utilization of resources.
Integrated Management System Certification:
Diesel Loco Shed, Kazipet has got IMS certification (for three systems ISO: 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, BS-OHSAS 18001:2007) on 10-08-2017
• Energy Audit:Energy Audit of Diesel Shed, KZJ was carried out by Electrical Maintenance Branch during 2016. It was decided to put LED lights and solar panels wherever feasible for reducing the electricity consumption and to identify areas for energy conservation.
• Water Audit:An inspection was carried out by DME/D/KZJ & ADEN/S/KZJ for carrying out water audit of water consumption and to implement effective measures to save the water. It was decided to install water flow measuring meters at prominent locations.
• Fire Audit:A fire Audit was conducted by Sr.DSO/SC, Sr.DSC/SC and Sr.DME/D/KZJ during August 2017 to ensure firefighting equipment in order.
• Internal Technical Seminar Internal Technical seminar conducted on 03-06-16 by DME/DSL/KZJ with power pack section staff & Supervisors regarding fitment of water raisers on Alco locos during heavy schedule. This year M/s.Medha is requested to conduct a technical seminar on Common Rail Electronic Fuel Direct Injection which is a new technology being tested on loco No.70384
Disaster Management – Fire Fighting Plan

Fire safety Precautions display boards are provided at various locations.
INITIATIVES:• Action plan with measurable targets have been defined for each section (20 sections available in shed) to achieve better reliability and availability of locos.
• Loco schedule history has been computerized. Similarly Loco failures, Loco schedules, Wheel Profiles, Stores, and components failures etc., also computerized in access database for quick and proper analysis.
• Safety Action plan has been defined and implemented to turn out the locos from shed with all safety parameters certified at SSE and Officers’ level. The staff, Supervisor & officer responsible for checking each safety parameter is defined in the Plan and meticulously monitored. There is No derailment on Loco Account.
• Audit plan for all sections in the shed has been defined and displayed in sections in form flexi charts for conducting regular audits to achieve best reliability and availability of Locos.
• Technical audits are regularly being conducted in all sections to stream line the working to achieve better reliability and availability of locos.
• A number of test gadgets have been developed to improve the reliability of various sub assemblies of the locomotive.
