Responsibility at Shropshires

Health & Safety Policies

A C Shropshire Ltd. places great importance on Health and Safety matters. The company undertakes to conduct its operations in such a way as to ensure the health and safety of all its employees, customers, suppliers and visitors and anyone else who may be affected by its operations.

We endeavour to create a safe and healthy working environment in which our employees are aware of the importance of health and safety. We encourage employees to participate in health and safety matters and to have regard to the welfare of themselves and others. Health and safety issues will be discussed during each monthly management meeting.

We require all our employees to comply with their obligation to act in a safe manner and to fully co-operate with management in matters of health and safety. Risk assessments of all major tasks have been undertaken to promote a safe working environment for our employees and those around us.

Please familiarise yourself with the Company’s health and safety policies and also the safe working procedures and safe systems of work relevant to your employment.

This health and safety policy is reviewed on an annual basis by Mr Richard Cox CMIOSH. Workplace inspections and audits are also carried out during the year by Mr Richard Cox CMIOSH.

Health and Safety management and procedures are documented in this policy. More detailed information regarding your co-operation; interest and participation are vital to the Company and will be appreciated. Several procedures that involve Health and Safety issues are duplicated within FEMAS (Feed Material Assurance Scheme). As an integral part of FEMAS all employees should be familiar with the aims and objectives of the Quality System. Therefore the two sets of documentation should be read in conjunction with each other.
