1. General Statement

1.1  ATOP LTD fully recognises the duties placed upon it under the Health and

Safety at Work etc Act 1974 and all other relevant legislation. The organisation is committed to ensuring it at least complies with the minimum requirements and wherever reasonably practicable shall exceed them. It also recognises the obligations it has to others with regard to its activities including Sub Contractors.

The Company recognises the duties it has to not only its staff, but also to Sub Contractors, visitors and any others who may be affected by its activities and shall adopt the principle of zero tolerance with regard to accident prevention. This principle is underpinned by the acceptance of the organisation that no accident at work is acceptable.

Working safely and efficiently, complying with any instruction, information & training in accordance with all procedures and statutory obligations;

Immediately reporting incidents (including accidents, near misses, which have resulted in, or may lead to injury);

Assisting with the investigation of accidents and aiding the introduction of measures to prevent a recurrence.
