Our commitment to Health & Safety is based on the fundamental right for our staff to be safe in the workplace.
Together we strive to work on accident prevention, injury protection and promotion of the health, safety, and welfare of all workers. It includes the initiative to eliminate or minimise all incidents or risks that could result in personal injury or damage to property.
To do this, we have implemented a structured Health and Safety Programme, which is continually assessed and updated.
To keep the workplace safe, we must all follow safe work practices and reduce any risk on own work environment. It is the responsibility of all workers to:
Look after their own and other people’ssafety.
Identify and address any unsafe conditions or work practices promptly. Utilize the Teammate software program to submit reports. In the event of accidents resulting in injury or property damage, immediate reporting to the Managing Director is mandatory, but at the very latest, within a 2-hour timeframe. All incident reports must be thoroughly investigated and completed within 7 working days. (Reporting starts with any Near Miss!)
In case of notifiable incidents, senior management shall be notified immediately.
In meeting this commitment, all managers are responsible for providing the necessary resources, time, coaching/mentoring, and training to ensure our workers are skilled and equipped to keep themselves and others safe in the workplace.
To achieve this, we have the following objectives:
Provide a safe place to work including safety equipment and materials.
Provide appropriate induction, training and supervision;
Prevent injury of ill health;
Proactively identify risks and unsafe behaviours and eliminate or minimise them;
Monitor workplaces and workers health, especially those who work in high-risk areas oractivities;
Provide occupational rehabilitation assistance and support the safe and early return to work;
Assess and recognise the health and safety performance of employees;
Require our contractors to demonstrate the same commitment in health and safety performance;
Comply with relevant legislation, regulations, codes of practice and industry standards;
Review, maintain and continually improve our Health and Safety Programme; and
Establish and maintain initiatives for workers consultation and participation.
