Company’s General Health & Safety Policy in
accordance with section (II) of the Health and
Safety at Work Act 1974.
M. Marcus Ltd.
understands the need for
successful Health & Safety management policies.
To sustain that commitment we will continually
measure, monitor and revise where necessary an
annual plan to ensure that Health and Safety
standards are adequate.
-
It is the policy of M. Marcus to
ensure, so far as is reasonable practical, the
Health, Safety and Welfare of all the employees
working for the Company. Equally, we accept a
similar responsibility for the Health and Safety
of the other persons who may be affected by our
actions. Every employee has a legal and moral
obligation to see that acts or omissions do not
place other employees, members of the public or
colleagues in jeopardy.
-
The Company regards all Health
and Safety Legislation as the bare minimum and
expects management to achieve their managerial
targets without compromising Health and Safety.
-
The Company will provide so far
practical, safe places and systems of work, safe
plant and machinery, safe handling of materials
and substance, the provision of adequate safety
equipment and ensure that appropriate
information, instruction, and training is given.
-
The Company will ensure that
suitable and sufficient risk assessments are
completed as required by statutory legislation
and all recommendations implemented. When this
has been undertaken all necessary employees will
be provided with sufficient information to
enable them to complete their work activity
safely.
-
The Company will ensure
continued consultation with the workplace to
enable all view points and recommendations to be
discussed at regular intervals.
All employees have duties under the Health and
Safety at work etc. Act 1974 and they are informed
of their personal responsibilities to take due care
of the Health & Safety of themselves and to ensure
that they do not endanger other persons by their
acts or omissions. They are also informed that they
must co-operate
with the Company in order that it can comply with
the legal requirements placed upon it in the
implementation of this Policy.
