Health & Safety
It is the policy of Playford and Son Ltd. to carry out its activities with
due regard for the health, safety and welfare of its employees, sub-contractors,
contractors, clients, visitors and members of the public. Playford and
Son Ltd. recognises that obligations in relation to Health, Safety and
Welfare are owed wherever the Company’s activities are carried out
including offices, construction sites, sites where sales are taking place
and in travelling in Company vehicles.
All obligations in relation to health, safety and welfare are taken seriously
by the Company and to this extent, assessment of risks to health, safety
and welfare of everyone directly affected by the Company’s activities
is a priority and is reflected in the policy.
The purpose of the policy is to promote a pro-active approach in the prevention
of accidents, ill health, dangerous occurrences and damage to the workplace.
This will be achieved, so far as is reasonably practicable by the identification
of hazards, the elimination of foreseeable risk and the management of residual
risk thus providing safe systems of work and compliance with all relevant
Statutory Acts, Regulations and Codes of Practice.
The co-operation of those employed by the Company in ensuing the policy
is effective and responsibility of each individual to take reasonable care
for the health and safety of himself/herself and those who may be effected
by his/her acts or omissions at work are legal obligations under Sections
7 and 8 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. Any breach of any aspect
of the Company’s Health and Safety Policy will be regarded as a serious
breach of these obligations.
The Company recognises that the provision of adequate financial resources,
supervision and training is essential to ensure that all staff and employees
are properly able to discharge their responsibilities under this policy.
Mr. A. Tuohy is appointed as the person responsible for the co-ordination
of Health, Safety and Welfare matters on behalf of the Company and will
ensure the policy of the company is implemented through the normal Company
Health and Safety channels. Specific duties will be devolved to other persons
within the management team in order that the policy is effectively implemented.
The Company will, through specialist Health and Safety Advisors if necessary,
give guidance and advice on all aspects of Health, Safety and Welfare and
arrange with management for training of employees as deemed to be necessary.
Monitoring the effectiveness of the Health and Safety Policy is the responsibility
of the Company Directors, who will ensure the policy is reviewed, at least
annually, recommending changes when deemed necessary.
Playford and Son Ltd. will consult with employees with respect to Health
Safety and Welfare in accordance with Statutory Requirements to ensure
that all necessary measures are taken to make the policy effective.
All employees are reminded that they have a statutory duty to co-operate
fully with their employer in compliance with their duties imposed under
the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
