Health and Safety Policy
G & L Group of companies is fully committed to establishing and maintaining a safe and healthy work environment throughout the operation that will meet and/or exceed all legislative requirements.

We will operate in an environment where “Doing a job right is the safe way” and will strive to cultivate a proactive consciousness in all employees and a sense of personal responsibility in the efforts to prevent accidental loss and maintain a healthy environment.

In keeping with this commitment, our Health and Safety Policy includes the following principles:

• Management has the responsibility for preventing occupational accidents, injuries and illness. This responsibility extends through all levels of management.
• All employees have a personal responsibility to work safely and wear the appropriate personal protective equipment as required, and to contribute to the achievement of a high level of performance in production and safety.
• Management and supervision are responsible for ensuring that safe and healthy working practices and procedures are established, and that employees receive the orientation, training and retraining required to enable them to safely perform the work they are assigned.

All employees, visitors, contractors and contractors’ employees shall comply with:

• Applicable government health and safety legislation;
• Our health and safety policies and procedures, general safety rules and established safe work practices.

Safety is a day-to-day responsibility of every manager, supervisor and employee of the G & L’s Group of companies. Through a well-managed, committed effort, we will succeed in maintaining a safe and healthy workplace, which will benefit all.
All employees at all levels of the organization are expected to accept responsibility for achieving the objectives stated in this health and safety policy.

In all work-related situations, priority will be given to protecting our employees, customers and visitors from illness, injury and risk, and to preserving materials and assets against the risk of fire, damage, and other losses.

It is by working together, and by giving the most careful attention to the management of health and safety, that we will meet our shared objectives of a working environment, free from actual and potential hazards. Our employees are required to understand and comply with our Health & Safety Program, Job Safe Policy, Health & Safety Committee meeting minutes and all other related Health & Safety information.

Employees are responsible for working in a safe and healthy manner, and are encouraged to adopt a safe and healthy lifestyle on and off the job.

Our goal is to make an effective contribution to workplace related health and safety. It is important for all of us to value this so that our company stands as an example of excellence to our staff and those we serve.
