Mott MacDonald Group
Environment
Group Policy Statement
January 2009
We are an international consultancy working to turn ideas into
reality, delivering solutions touching many areas of everyday life:
from transport, energy, water and the environment to buildings,
industry, communications, health and education.
1. Commitment
It is the intention of the Mott MacDonald Group that its
activities will, as a minimum, comply with all relevant statutory
provisions, and all reasonably practicable measures will be taken
to minimise risk to its employees or others who may be affected by
its operations. In every case, a high practicable standard of
health and safety will be pursued. The Mott MacDonald Group is
committed to the integration of safety into all areas of corporate
activity and to implement a process of continual improvement in
this regard.
2. Responsibility
Richard Williams is the Board Director responsible for the
Group Safety Policy and for the effective implementation,
maintenance and review of the Safety Management System. Dr Laura
Hague has been appointed Group Safety Manager responsible for the
effective and economic application, operation and development of
the system on a day to day basis. Management and supervisory staff
have the responsibility for implementing this Policy throughout the
Group, so that health and safety considerations are always given
priority in the planning and execution of all work.
All employees and contractors are expected to co-operate with the
Group in carrying out this Policy, so that their own work, as far
as is reasonably practicable, is carried out with the minimum risk
to themselves or others.
3. Approach
Safety advisors within the Quality Environment and Safety
Department are available to assist with the implementation of this
Policy, and provide information, advice and support to employees on
health and safety matters.
Adequate financial and technical resources will be made available
to allow this Policy to be carried out. Information and training on
health and safety will be provided to all staff as necessary for
them to carry out their work safely and without risk to
health.
This Group Policy Statement will be displayed prominently in
appropriate locations throughout the Group. The Group Safety
Documentation will be drawn to the attention of all employees and
will be readily available for reference.
