L.I.T.S. Ltd - Health and Safety Statement Introduction The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 places a primary duty on all employers to ensure, as far as is reasonable, the health, safety and welfare of all their employees. In addition, employers are required to adopt a statement of safety policy. L.I.T.S. will seek to establish a culture of mutual safety in the training centre in which employees, apprentices and candidates are encouraged to ‘think safety’ and to adopt a positive attitude towards the best safe working practice. In particular, special consideration is given to learners/young persons in respect of their limited experience and need for supervision as required.
General Statement of Policy The L.I.T.S. policy is to provide and maintain safe and healthy working conditions, equipment and systems of work for all our employees, and to provide such information, training and supervision as they need for this purpose. We also accept our responsibility for the health and safety of apprentices, candidates and other people who may be affected by our activities. We regard this as mutual responsibility for their own health and safety and for the health and safety of those who may be affected by their activities.
The allocation of duties for safety matters and the particular arrangements which we will make to implement the policy are set out in the Training Centre Safety Statement.
The policy will be kept up to date, particularly as the Training Centre changes in nature and in size. To ensure this, the policy and the way in which it operates will be reviewed every year.
The policy will be brought to the notice of all employees and at induction, to all new employees. All apprentices and candidates will be informed of the policy and their responsibilities.
