Health and safety is a way of life, it is not restricted to the workplace. We encourage
all employees and contractors to make safety their top priority, not just at work but
also as an essential part of their everyday life. Everyone needs to 'think safety' and
show consideratoin for the safety of others.

practice through a continous improvement program, which includes a number of
initiatives;

1. development of an improved safety culture through our ongoing training
program, occupational health cover and risk assessments.
2. To adopt accident data as a Key Performance indicator.
3. To reduce the lost time accident frequency rate, year on year
4. To undertake regular safety inspections.
