KC Drains - Health & Safety Policy
It is the policy of KC Drains to give greatest importance to the health and safety of its employees. The Company considers this duty to be a management responsibility equal to that of any other function.
The Company recognises and accepts responsibility as an employer for providing a safe and healthy work place and working environment for all employees in premises under its direct control.
It is also the Company's policy to co-operate with customers or prospective customers with the object of providing for our employees similar facilities on premises not under the Company's control.
Moreover, the Company recognises and accepts its obligations to ensure that other parties are not adversely affected by its activities. The Company will take all steps, so far as is reasonably practicable, to meet its health and safety responsibilities, paying particular attention to the provision and maintenance of:
- Safe plant, equipment and system for work.
- Safe arrangements for the use, handling, storing and transporting of equipment and materials.
- Sufficient information, instruction, training and supervision to enable all employees to avoid hazards and contribute positively to their own safety and health at work.
- A safe place of work, and safe access to it.
- A healthy working environment.
It is the duty of every employee to work in accordance with the Company safety policy. To this end each employee must accept and carry out his responsibilities to:
- Act with due care to prevent injury to himself and others.
- Report all accidents, damage to equipment and potential hazards.
- Follow the agreed working procedures, including the correct use of safety equipment and protective clothing.
Furthermore, it will be the duty of any employee who is required to operate any equipment with which they are unfamiliar to make this fact known to their supervisor so that training can be given.
The Company Safety Policy will be reviewed six monthly any revisions will be brought to the notice of all employees.
The Directors of KC Drains give full backing to this policy and will support all those who endeavour to carry it out.
