Health & Safety Statement

LCM will comply with its legal duties in order to provide a safe and healthy working environment for its employees and others who may be affected by the company’s activities. It will take a positive action to ensure that other contractor’s employees, visitors, occupiers of premises and members of the public do not have their Health and Safety adversely affected by the work operations that we undertake.

The only acceptable standard of Health, Safety and Welfare will be compliance with The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974. Where possible and sensible to do so, this standard will exceed the minimum requirements of this Act and the Regulations made under this Act. We will seek and ensure others with whom we sub-contract have similar high standards. In particular our statement of intent is;

To consult on Health and Safety matters with our employees and others who may be in control of premises to ensure this policy and arrangements for Health and Safety are kept up to date
