Managing our safety, health & environmental responsibilities
The
CSR Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) Management System is designed to
prevent injuries and environmental incidents by ensuring a systematic approach
to SHE management, building a good SHE culture and level of awareness, and
meeting legal obligations.
Good management of safety,
health and the environment is an essential part of doing business today.
Community expectations are high and legislation is becoming more stringent. We
have a structured SHE management system that is based on Australian and International
standards so that we can ensure that CSR and its people are properly
discharging their responsibilities.
In
CSR, we regard management of safety, health and the environment as an integral
and fundamentally important part of our business. We believe that all injuries,
occupational illnesses and environmental incidents can be prevented.
Our
managers are held accountable for safety and environment performance, and all
employees are expected to take personal responsibility for their actions, and to
be involved in improvement initiatives and setting standards.
We
have adopted a common approach across the company to managing safety health and
environment. All businesses are required to implement the standard at two
levels: first, the priority level, and then when this is achieved, the level of
best practice.
There
are strict SHE protocols for contractors as well as for employees to ensure the
safety and well being of all people on CSR sites.
We recognise that we get the best results by involving the people
that do the work in analysing risks and defining the
right way of doing the work.
