Trent Concrete Limited is committed to ensure the health, safety and welfare of all it's employees whilst at work and further to ensure that other persons not in its employment are not adversely affected by it's work activities.
Particular attention will be paid to the provision and maintenance of:

Management will ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that whilst on company premises customers, contractors and visitors are not exposed to risks to their health and safety and will give such persons any information about the undertaking as is necessary to ensure this.
Whilst the Company accepts its prime responsibility for ensuring the health, safety and welfare of its employees it is expected that all employees accept their responsibilities under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974:
- Take reasonable care for their own health and safety and that of others who may be affected by their acts or omissions
- Co-operate with management and any other persons to enable the Company to fulfil its legal obligations
- Not to interfere with or misuse anything provided in the interests of health, safety and welfare.
The Company will seek to promote its policy by all appropriate measures. It will provide such resources, organisational arrangements, systems of work and training as required. The Company will provide the necessary resources to ensure the full implementation of this policy and the Board of Directors will give full backing to all those committed to achieving the policy objectives.
In order to keep abreast of new legislation relating to health and safety we are committed to undertake an annual review of this policy and to update and make changes as necessary.
