2. Involve our Employees/Subcontractors in safety activities.
3. Induct and train our Employees to recognise and control hazards and hold regular safety meetings.
4. Monitor our workplace to ensure our planned controls are effective.
5. Supervise our Employees/Subcontractors to ensure they are acting safely.
6. Record all incidents and accidents in our workplace, investigate all known incidents and accidents and take action to prevent recurrence.
7. Develop and implement emergency and evacuation procedures.
8. Ensure all plant and equipment is maintained and safe to use.
