Putting Safety and Wellbeing at the Heart of Our Work
We recognise and accept our responsibility as an employer to provide a safe and healthy working environment for all employees, to avoid risks to the health and safety of others who may be affected by our activities and will take all reasonable steps to meet this responsibility.
Our commitments include:
Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment
We will identify significant hazards and plan for their elimination, reduction and control by conducting risk assessments at regular intervals.
Communication
Communication between all levels of employee within the Company is paramount. We will ensure that there are adequate arrangements in place to permit the flow of information both to and from employees.
Information, Instruction & Training
All our employees will be given adequate information, instruction and training as is necessary to ensure safety for all.
Action on Assessments
We will plan to address the issues identified from the assessments and those deficiencies identified through our regular monitoring exercises.
Monitoring & Review
Our policy will be regularly monitored, reviewed and updated at least once per annum to reflect any changes in legislation or any changes in activity and procedures.
External Contractors
When it becomes necessary to employ external contractors, we undertake to only employ professional, competent and compliant contractors with relevant health and safety legislation.
Employee Responsibility
We all have a legal duty to co-operate in safety-related matters, not to endanger others or ourselves, and not to misuse anything provided for safety. In particular, all persons are to ensure that appropriate safety rules are followed as failure to do so may result in disciplinary action being taken.
