HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICY STATEMENT

PBU (UK) LTD is committed to the elimination of hazards and reduction of risks relating to the occupational health, safety, and welfare of all its employees by providing, so far as is reasonably practicable, a safe and healthy environment for all persons affected by the Company’s operations. As a responsible employer, The Company aims not only to comply with health and safety legislation but to exceed standards through the adoption of good practices and to be at the front in health and safety performance. The Board of Directors is fully committed to achieving this through a programme promoting a positive approach to accident prevention and continuously improving the management of the safety and health of its workforce. We believe good health and safety is good business.

The Board of Directors has ultimate responsibility for the Health and Safety Policy and recognises that the principal means for adequate accident prevention is the development of a safe system of work. The Company has therefore produced systems and procedures for designing safe systems of work for those aspects of its principal activities which have been assessed as high risk. Management, staff and contractors are required to comply with the Company’s safety rules and procedures and are encouraged to contribute to their further development.

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for Health, Safety and Welfare of the company and will provide full backing to the SHEQ Team whose function it shall be to monitor and report on its implementation. In order to achieve the above principles, the Company has put in place the appropriate resources and developed in-house systems to achieve the following aims:

To make health and safety an integral part of the management of the Company.
To maintain compliance with all relevant legislation and approved codes of practice as the Safety Policy minimum standard and to monitor new developments to continually improve performance.
