Introduction
SAFETY AND HEALTH POLICY FOR XYZ COMPANY
XYZ COMPANY places a high value on the safety of its employees. XYZ COMPANY is committed to providing a safe workplace for all employees and has developed this program for injury prevention to involve management, supervisors, and employees in identifying and eliminating hazards that may develop during our work process.
It is the basic safety policy of this company that no task is so important that an employee must violate a safety rule or take a risk of injury or illness in order to get the job done. The time during which employees are participating in training and education activities shall be considered as hours worked for purposes of wages, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment. The training and education shall be provided at no cost to the employees. Members of the Safety/Health Committee will be allowed reasonable time to exercise the rights of the committee without any loss of pay or benefits.
Employees are required to comply with all company safety rules and are encouraged to actively participate in identifying ways to make our company a safer place to work. Supervisors are responsible for the safety of their employees and as a part of their daily duties must check the workplace for unsafe conditions, watch employees for unsafe actions and take prompt action to eliminate any hazards.
Management will do its part by devoting the resources necessary to form a safety committee composed of management and elected employees. We will develop a system for identifying and correcting hazards. We will plan for foreseeable emergencies. We will provide initial and ongoing training for employees and supervisors. And, we will establish a disciplinary policy to insure that company safety policies are followed.
Letter From The President
The purpose of this policy is to create a high criterion of safety all the way through operations of XYZ Company,and to make certain that no employee is expected to work under any conditions, which are risky or unhygienic.
We know that each employee has the right to obtain personal satisfaction from their job and the prevention of occupational injury and illness is of such significance to this belief that it will be given top priority at all times.
It is our goal here at ZYX Company to begin and maintain complete accident prevention and safety training programs. Each distinct individual from upper management to the working person is accountable for the safety and health of those persons that are in charge and their coworkers around them, our employee’s.
Signed,
The Company President
