Health & Safety Policy:

HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICY
GENERAL STATEMENT

At Warrington Borough Transport, our aim is to improve our safety performance continually.  We believe this goes hand in hand with our commitment to providing the best possible bus service for Warrington and surrounding areas.

We will provide safe and healthy working conditions for our employees to reduce the risk of injury and ill health.  We will also take steps to protect the safety of passengers, visitors and other people who may be affected by the company’s activities.  Our directors and managers will ensure that our safety standards are always adequate to at least meet current legislation and where practical exceed these requirements.

Everyone has a role to play.  We expect our employees to contribute by participating in the preparation of safe working methods, following those methods that apply to their work and providing feedback on the success of these methods or suggesting improvements that can be made.

We will provide appropriate training to all employees to generate awareness of the legal requirements and how these can be fulfilled in practical terms.

Each year the directors and management will review the safety performance of the company, set out the aims and objectives for future years and support these plans by making available sufficient financial and physical resources.
