It is the policy of McMahon Ltd. that in conducting its activities every effort will be made to protect the health and safety of its employees at work and of other persons who may be affected directly or indirectly by its activities. The Company recognises the responsibilities placed on it by Safety Legislation and accepts that the health and safety of its employees and those affected by their work will be given priority. McMahon Ltd. will not only comply with the requirements of the relevant legislation but will also promote, in an appropriate manner, further measures for protection of its employees. The Company will take all reasonable steps to ensure that safe systems of work are devised and implemented by all personnel and sub-contractors under their control. Also that all works, structures, plant, and equipment are designed, constructed, maintained and managed in the safest way possible. The Company will carry out and process safety surveys and will review them annually to ensure that process additions or changes have not created unusual or unanticipated hazards. The Company, in order to meet this safety policy, will provide sufficient resources of time, personnel and finance. It is also the policy of this Company to provide sufficient information, training and supervision to its workforce in pursuance of the Safety Statement and to do every reasonable  thing to ensure sub-contractors provide similar arrangements. The Company requires that contractors working on its behalf apply Safety and Environmental standards fully consistent with our own and achieve comparable levels of performance. All employees will be made aware of this policy and of their duties in relation to it. In following this policy the Company recognises the vital importance of the ongoing commitment of all employees, whether managers, supervisors, foremen or other staff, to the highest standards of health and safety and environmental performance, and will ensure that they have the required skills and support to achieve this. The policy will be kept up-to-date: particularly in the light of organisational changes or advised action by the Oireachtas. Our legal and moral responsibilities for our own safety and the safety of others dictate that everyone must know and comply with the regulations and safety requirements pertaining to their work and full co-operation is required from all.
