Commitment to Compliance
With our people as our strength, we take their health, safety and welfare seriously. Promoting a strong safety culture, we are able to show our commitment to OH&S principles by the existence of a workplace OH&S consultation committee, regular education and training in preventative action against injuries, accidents and hazards; drills in fire evacuation and emergency procedures; and a employee assistance program providing professional counselling for personal and work related concerns.
We are also committed to maintaining a reputation of responsibility, integrity and fair dealing, with an expectation that staff conduct themselves in a manner that demonstrates impeccable ethical standards. At all times employees are expected to be honest, fair and non-discriminatory in their dealings with other employees, customers, suppliers and the public, treating all people with courtesy and sensitivity.
