Health & Safety Policy
HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICY STATEMENT
It is our policy to provide products and services that satisfy our Clients’ requirements within a safe working environment.
In so doing, we ensure compliance with the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and associated legislation. We recognise and fully accept our responsibilities concerned with ensuring the health and safety of our employees, contractors, visitors and members of the public.
As far as is reasonably practicable, it is our policy to:
- provide and maintain plant, equipment, systems and a working environment which are safe and without risk to health
- protect all employees from exposure to hazards by providing appropriate controls, protective equipment and training
- continuously monitor health and safety performance to determine the effectiveness and to ensure it meets the standards set by the company
- seek continuous improvement in our health and safety performance by undertaking a regular review of its activities
- encourage employee participation in developing health and safety standards
We recognise that health and safety is a managerial responsibility of equal importance to all other activities undertaken by the company. Directors, Senior Managers and Managers ensure that our policy and appropriate management systems are known, understood, implemented and maintained by all employees under their control.
We ensure that all personnel are provided with relevant health and safety training. This is initially achieved through induction training of all new employees followed by specific training to suit their working environment. Training requirements are continuously monitored to identify additional needs.
Employees are expected to co-operate and play an integral role with regards to health and safety. Every employee must take reasonable care for the health and safety of themselves and anyone affected by their acts or omissions.
