Health & Safety

It is the policy of Huck Construction Ltd to comply with the terms of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and subsequent legislation and to provide and maintain a healthy and safe working environment by ensuring that adequate resources are made available to the relevant managers.

Huck Construction Ltd health and safety objective is to minimise the number of instances of occupational accidents and illnesses and ultimately to achieve an accident-free workplace.

All employees will be provided with such equipment, information, training and supervision as is necessary to implement the policy and achieve the stated objective.

Huck Construction Ltd recognise and accept their duty to protect the health and safety of all visitors to the company, including contractors and temporary employees, as well as any members of the public who might be affected by our operations.

Whilst the management of Huck Construction Ltd will do all that is within its powers to ensure the health and safety of its employees, it is recognised that health and safety at work is the responsibility of each and every individual associated with the company. It is the duty of each employee to take reasonable care of their own and other people’s welfare and to report any situation which may pose a threat to the well being of any other person.

The management of Huck Construction Ltd will provide every employee with the training necessary to carry out his or her tasks safely. However if an employee is unsure how to perform a certain task or feels it would be dangerous to perform a specific job then it is the employee’s duty to report this to their Manager or the Managing Director. An effective health and safety programme requires continuous communication between employees at all level. It is therefore every worker’s responsibility to report immediately any situation that could jeopardise the well being of themselves or any other person.

All injuries, however small, sustained by a person at work must be reported to the relevant Manager. Accident records are crucial to the effective monitoring and revision of the policy and must therefore be accurate and comprehensive.

Huck Construction Ltd health and safety policy will be and updated annually.
