Environmental Policy
Bowdon Group is particularly concerned about the future of the environment and takes responsibility for the environmental effects of its own actions.
Bowdon Group is committed to facing the challenges of environmental management and to preventing pollution. In order to achieve this aim our objectives are :-
Environmental, Safety and Health (ESH) Policy Statement
Bowdon Group is dedicated to the achievement of being a leader in the provision of commercial planters and bespoke mulitfunctional planting arrangements.
To ensure the achievement of this mission, the management of Bowdon Group is fully committed to the principles and practices of the Environment, Safety and Health Policies.
It is the policy of the Bowdon Group to comply with the terms of current UK Health, Safety and Environmental legislation and to provide and maintain a healthy and safe working environment.
The objective is to minimise instances of occupational illness and accidents and to achieve an accident free and environmentally friendly workplace.
All employees will be provided with such equipment, information, training and supervision as are necessary to implement the policy and achieve the stated objective.
Bowdon Group recognises and accepts its duty to protect the health and safety of all visitors to the company, including contractors and temporary workers, as well as any members of the public who might be affected by our operations.
While the management of Bowdon Group will do all that is within its powers to ensure the health and safety of its employees, it is recognised that health and safety at work is the responsibility of each and every individual associated within the company. It is the duty of each employee to take reasonable care of their own and other people's welfare and to report any situation which may pose a threat to the well being of any other person.
The management of Bowdon Group will provide every employee with the training necessary to carry out their tasks safely. However if an employee is unsure how to perform a certain task or feels it would be dangerous to perform a specific job then it is the employee's duty to report this to their supervisor or senior manager.
An effective health and safety program requires continuous communication between staff at all levels. It is therefore every worker's responsibility to report immediately any situation that could jeopardise the well-being of himself or any other person.
All accidents, injuries, incidents (including near misses) sustained by a person at work must be reported to either their Supervisor/Manager, a first aid qualified colleague, or directly to the ESH Manager. Accident and incident records are crucial to the effective monitoring and revision of the policy and must therefore be accurate and as comprehensive as possible.
Bowdon Group and its employees will strive to:
The Bowdon Group Environment, Safety and Health Policy will be continually monitored and updated, particularly when changes in the scale and nature of our operations occur.
