Safety

GeoConsult's policy is to achieve high standards of health and safety at all its work locations and operations as an integral part of our working procedures. This is undertaken with the objective of preventing work-related injuries and illness.

These high standards are achieved through both the company and the employees being committed and involved in the health and safety program. We are actively taking steps to control potential hazards, near misses, lost time injuries and environmental hazards.

Our safety management plan has been developed to comply with relevant legislation and advisory standards, with particular emphasis on the Occupational Health and Safety of our employees. It is the obligation of all employees to have a sound knowledge of these standards established by these laws and guidelines and to utilise and implement the rules and regulations in safe working practices.

Regard for the safety of the general public, our own employees, employees of fellow contractors and contractors we are supervising, is a supreme responsibility at all levels of our organisation. It is also our aim to achieve as little environmental impact as possible.

A safe operation is organised, clean and efficient. If every employee regards accidents in the same way we consider all other aspects of our operation. We are progressing to be as far as humanly possible in a better position not only to control accidents but also to eliminate them.

It is therefore of utmost importance that all aspects of our safety management plan are strictly adhered to and the intent of the plan be followed as is humanly possible.
