The health, safety and welfare of employees is of prime importance to WA Construction (hereafter referred to as the Company) and is essential to the efficient operation of its undertaking.

The responsibility for safety at work rests upon all sectors of management, and the Company will ensure that this policy is pursued through the organisation. The Company will take all reasonably practicable precautions to ensure the health, safety and welfare at work of its employees by providing:

a)      A safe working environment by the design, construction, operation and maintenance of all plant, equipment and facilities.

b)      Safe systems of work.

c)      Adequate instruction, information training and supervision.

d)     Control of all situations likely to cause damage to property and equipment.

e)      Effective facilities for the treatment of injuries, which occur at work.

f)       Effective fire prevention and fire control procedure.

g)      Adequate facilities for consultation between management and employee representatives.

h)      The making of such tests, examinations, samples and records as are necessary to monitor the working environment. The results will be communicated to all employees.

The company expects employees to conform to this policy and to comply with the relevant sections of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, and to exercise all reasonable care for their own health and safety and that of others who may be affected by their acts or omissions.

The overall responsibility for the health, safety and welfare of the Company and its personnel is vested in the Managing Director.

The Company will monitor and operate the policy, and will support all those who endeavour to carry it out.
