Health and Safety

LIS recognises its responsibility to ensure that all reasonable precautions are taken to provide and maintain working conditions which are safe, healthy and comply with all statutory requirements and codes of practice. Our Project Team and Service Engineers have extensive experience working within the remit of customer site safety procedures and have, in addition received appropriate safety training (safety passports).

In all areas of its business, LIS will, so far is reasonably practicable, pay particular attention to:

• The provision and maintenance of plant and systems of work which are safe and healthy.
• Arrangements for ensuring safety and absence of risks to health in connection with the use, handling, storage and transport of articles and substances.
• The provision of such information, instruction, training and supervision to ensure the health and safety at work of employees and others.
• The provision of a safe means to access to and egress from the place of work.
• The maintenance of a working environment that is safe, without risks to health and provides adequate facilities and arrangements for welfare at work.

All employees have a responsibility to do everything they can to prevent injury to themselves, their fellow employees and others affected by their actions or omissions at work. They are expected to follow company procedures in particular, to report any incidents which have or may have led to injury or damage.

All employees should ensure that they use any equipment provided in accordance with the training that they have received, inform their supervisor about any serious or imminent danger, and also report any shortcomings that they see in the protection arrangements. If the supervisor/manager or responsible person is not available, an employee may stop work and immediately proceed to a place of safety in the event of being exposed to serious, imminent and unavoidable danger. Any employee who is faced with such a conflict between the demands of safety and his or her job should raise the matter as soon as possible with the supervisor after the danger has ceased or has been dealt with.
