We believe compliance is owned by all employees, and will monitor such compliance, through ongoing workplace assessment of our operations, take corrective actions as warranted and include compliance sustainability as a routine part of operations.
We will continually identify those aspects of our operations which have the most significant environmental, health and safety impact and where required update our process and procedure.
In addition to compliance with statutory requirements we will seek, proactively, to prevent ill health, injury, damage, and loss arising from our operations and activities.
