Health and Safety
Caltech Surveys Ltd. is committed to protecting and promoting the health and safety of its employees. Safety is an integral part of the company’s operations and is there to protect our employees, clients’ property, the environment and the public by ensuring that we follow safety standards that meet and exceed those of our clients and all governing regulations.
In addition to protecting lives, the safety program contributes to employee moral and pride because Caltech employees participate in identifying safety needs and safe work practices.
Caltech supports and adheres to the guiding principles which promote worker safety as developed by the petroleum industry’s task force on safety.
Employees of Caltech are responsible for maintaining the integrity of the safety program. Senior management, the company safety coordinator and supervisors are responsible for identifying safety needs, supplying safety equipment, communicating safety hazards, investigating hazardous conditions and accidents and providing appropriate training. Their role is supported by input from all employees.
Employees and contractors who knowingly violate safety rules and safe work practices may face disciplinary action, dismissal, or legal action.
All Caltech employees and others on company worksites are responsible for obeying all safety rules, following safe work practices, wearing personal protective equipment, participating in safety training programs and informing supervisors of any unsafe work conditions. We are committed to provide modified work programs to help personnel return to the workforce as soon as possible if they have had a work disability accident.
By fulfilling our safety responsibilities, everyone employed by Caltech will share the benefits of a safe and healthy workplace.
