Hopper & Sons are committed to Occupational Health &
Safety (OH&S) standards and have a detailed OH&S handbook
assist employees to work together in establishing and maintaining
safe construction sites free from injuries and disease. The manual provides members of the Hopper group with a common set of basic safety requirements applicable to sites, regardless of size. The information in the handbook deals with the hazards in situations, which potentially produce the highest level of risk, and offers the appropriate safety measures to control the hazards and minimise risk. The control measures identified in the handbook should be incorporated in “Permit to Work”, “Pre-Start meetings” and “Job Safety Analyses” (JSAs) developed for particular work tasks. The handbook lays down the basic principles for working safely. It can also be used as an adjunct to general industry and site specific inductions and is a useful reference for supervisors, health and safety representatives and employees in determining appropriate standards of safety. Areas covered in the manual include policies, first aid, safety hazards, guidelines for site operators, scaffolding, electrical safety, confined spaces, hazardous substances, guidelines for working outdoors and where to get further help and assistance. |
