IT IS THE DIRECT RESPONSIBILITY OF THE COMPANY'S MANAGEMENT AT ALL LEVELS TO BE FULLY CONVERSANT WITH THE CONTENTS OF THIS POLICY AND TO IMPLEMENT THEM.

The Health and Safety Consultant will be accountable to the General Manager, who has special responsibility for safety and through him to the Managing Director who has the ultimate responsibility. They will advise on all aspects of health and safety where this is necessary to enable management to fulfil its responsibilities.

It is the duty of all personnel to take reasonable care of the health and safety of themselves and of other persons who may be affected by their acts or omissions at work, and to co-operate with the company so far as is necessary to enable the company to discharge its statutory responsibilities in an effective and satisfactory manner.
