This Health and Safety policy is designed to comply with all relevant safety legislation.
Responsibility
Managers will implement this policy and are responsible for the Health and Safety of all persons working at any operation under their control. Managers will ensure all supervisors are provided with necessary instruction, training and resources to implement this policy successfully and hold supervisors accountable to do so.
Supervisors and all people directing the work of others will be responsible for all people under their control.

Employees must ensure safety is at the forefront of their minds at all times. They must ensure they exercise their duty of care at all times to the extent of their capability. They must follow all safety procedures and the instructions of their supervisors and must report all hazards, injuries and ill health to their supervisor and manager or another management person if their supervisor is not present.
