HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICY

Our organisation is committed to the protection of its employees from accidental injury and its property from accidental damage.

In meeting this commitment the management will:

  • Provide a safe workplace, safe equipment and proper materials
  • Establish and insist upon safe methods and safe practices at all times
  • Provide appropriate supervision and training and monitor conformance to quality standards
  • Ensure employees and other persons understand and accept their responsibilty to promote a safe and healthy place of work.
  • Develop appropriate emergency proceedures to render immediate response and first aid
  • Have a process of hazard identification, evaluation, isolation and minimisation
  • Comply with the legislative requirements
  • Ensure that contractors working on our premises have and operate appropriate safety proceedures
  • The responsibilty for safety will be adopted as an integral part of everyday work, therefore it is vital that every employee shares in the commitment to eliminate unsafe acts and conditions by thinking safety and acting safely at all times.

SAFETY STATEMENT

The health and safety of all personnel engaged on projects will be integral to all plans, contracts and procedures involved in the design and construction of projects.

 

Every effort will be made to ensure that everyone is provided with a safe and healthy place in which to work and that compliance is made with all relevant legislation, codes and standards.

Safety is a team commitment involving managers, supervisors, and employees working together through consultation and co-operation. Any individual observing unsafe or unhealthy acts or situations is expected to address the situation immediately and directly with the person or persons involved.

The rights of all personnel to express their concerns over safety in the workplace and to expect those concerns to be addressed is recognised and supported.
