conducted in such a way as to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the
health, safety and welfare of all its employees, subcontractors and site visitors
and that its activities will not adversely aect the health and safety of others i.e.
members of the public, children and any other interested parties. We believe
there is no conict between our re!uirement to "eep our wor"force and membersof the public safe and our lon# term $nancial success. %othin# that we do is so
important that we put people, property or the environment at ris".
&he 'oard holds the ana#in# irector accountable for health and safety
throu#hout the company*s operations however the 'oard reco#nises that this
duty will be shared by the speci$c ivisional irector.
&he ana#in# irector will hold the appointed ivisional irector for speci$c
pro+ects responsible for the health and safety of all aspects of those pro+ects.
In the $eld of health and safety we see" to achieve the hi#hest standards. We do
not pursue this aim simply to achieve compliance with current le#islation, butbecause it is in our best interests. &he eective mana#ement of health and
safety, leadin# to fewer accidents involvin# in+ury and time o wor" is an
investment which helps us to achieve our purposes.
We are committed to ensurin# that all health and safety le#islation and
re#ulations are complied with. ll new and proposed le#islation, codes of practice
and other re!uirements to which the company may subscribe will be considered

reect le#al compliance in all wor"in# practices, as a minimum standard.
&he -ealth, afety and Welfare /olicy will be reviewed at least annually and
monitored to ensure compliance with current and any future le#al re!uirementsis achieved.
We re!uire that hi#h standards of health, safety and welfare shall be achieved

stron# commitment to the protection of the environment and to minimise waste1
to this end we have set out our environmental policy statement as part of the
-ealth, afety and Welfare /olicy in order to support this commitment.
&his policy and all revisions of it will be brou#ht to the attention of all employees
by their line mana#er in compliance with Company procedures.

consultation with the employees. onthly safety meetin#s are held to ensure
compliance with current le#al re!uirements. We also reco#nise that there is a

carryin# out our wor"s in such a manner so as to prevent as far as reasonably
possible the e2posure of employees or others to in+ury or ill health as a result of
those wor"s. We will also ensure that su0cient resources are available to meet
all reasonable health and safety re!uirements.
We see" continual improvement in all matters concernin# -ealth, afety and
Welfare and $rmly believe that all accidents and instances of ill health are
preventable.
It is the function of mana#ement to provide all the necessary resources in order
to carry out wor" in a safe manner. We reco#nise however, that a safety policy
cannot function properly without the support and co3operation of all employees.
We therefore remind all employees that they have a le#al duty not only to wor"
in a safe manner, but also to co3operate with eorts to create safe and healthy
wor"in# conditions.
