HEALTH AND SAFETY

It is the policy of Turney Wylde Construction Limited to recognise and accept its management responsibilities to prevent injury and ensure a healthy, safe working environment for all of its employees.  The company also accepts its statutory duties to conduct its undertaking in such a way so as to ensure that the persons not in its employment who may be affected by its working activities are not exposed to risks to their health and safety.

The company will take all reasonable practicable steps to meet these responsibilities paying particular attention to the provision and maintenance of:

• Plant, equipment and systems of work
• Safe arrangements for the use, handling, storage and transport of equipment and materials
• Sufficient information, instruction, training and supervision
• Safe place of work and access
• A healthy working environment
• Adequate facilities of welfare at work
• Protective clothing and equipment

We review our health and safety plan prior to the commencement of any project and in accordance with our health and safety policy.  The preparation of a phase plan enables us to consider risks identified and any that may become apparent once the project is underway.  From this the appropriate method statements and actions will be implemented.  In accordance with our health and safety policy the plan will be reviewed and updated as work progresses.

Whilst the day-to-day responsibility for health and safety lies with the site based staff, supported by our Contracts and Project Managers, a full health and safety audit is undertaken by our visiting health and safety consultant on a bi-monthly basis.
