Work Health & Safety Policy Statement 

JobContax  is committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace for all workers and visitors and to provide safety conscious employees to clients in order to achieve an accident-free workplace. This is achieved by fully integrating health and safety practices into all our operations and daily activities, focusing on continual and innovative improvements and demonstrating leadership in safety.

Underlying our policy is our commitment to the following safety principles:

• People Really Matter
• Effective communication and consultation between our company, clients and workers is fundamental
• Accidents, incidents and injuries can and will be prevented
• Safety is everyone’s responsibility
• Provision of education, inductions and resources is essential to reducing risk
• Ongoing implementation, monitoring and evaluation.

 Measurable objectives and targets are implemented to ensure innovative improvements eliminate risks and effective return to work and rehabilitation strategies are in place. By promoting a culture of continuous improvement and adopting a zero tolerance to non conformances of our agreed systems, we strive to provide a safe and healthy workplace for all workers and visitors, plus any others who may be affected by our undertakings.

JobContax will endeavour to:

• Provide and maintain safe working environments without risk to health and safety.
• Set standards that comply with all relevant statutory requirements relating to health, safety and the environment with regard to their dealings with employees, customers, contractors and the public.

• Safeguard employees and others from foreseeable hazards with regard to health, safety or the environment in existing processes and working systems.
• Ensure that when new substances, plant, machinery, equipment, processes or premises are introduced, adequate guidance, instruction and supervision will be provided for safe methods of work to be developed.
• Ensure all employees are aware of their own responsibilities in respect of relevant health, safety and environmental matters.
• Aim to achieve the commitment and active involvement of all staff, in order that safety awareness and positive attitudes are fostered and continuous efforts made to improve safety performance.
• Ensure that contractors carrying out work are informed of relevant standards; are trained in procedures as necessary; and that systems are established for monitoring compliance, without detracting from the contractors legal responsibilities, to ensure that requirements are met.
• Promote good health and be concerned with the prevention of occupational and non-occupational disorders and diseases using health counselling and health education.
• Ensure that the workplace is maintained in a clean, tidy and hygienic condition throughout.
• Co-operate with appropriate authorities and technical organisations, both to ensure that policies are updated and to contribute to the formulation of standards and means of compliance.
• Retain, and review as necessary, existing arrangements for safety committees to maintain effective consideration of health and safety measures.
• Ensure that these objectives are being fulfilled through auditing activities.
