Workplace Safety (Personal Safety)

Ensuring safe working conditions is of paramount importance to all of us. We believe that a safe workplace instills a sense of security and confidence among our workforce which enhances our productivity. We strive to ensure that every individual working within our premises is protected from any inherent risk related to workplace safety. Safety observations and incidents receive a high priority, with the senior management directly involved in all such matters.

Training

Training allows employees to acquire new skills, sharpen existing ones and enhance self as well as organization’s productivity.

  • Pep Talk or Tool Box talks are small awareness programs conducted in presence of supervisors, Engineers / Safety personnel where in workmen are briefed about the potential hazards posed by a job, safety precautions to be taken and past history/incidents if any.

Mock Drills

Mock Drills are one of the best tools to evaluate the readiness of an organization for emergency situations. It helps assess response of people to disaster, improves coordination between various departments, checks the competency of planned actions and improves the ability to quickly respond to disaster situations.

Mock Drill is conducted to gauge how promptly and safely the staff evacuates the premises through the emergency exit plan and uses the available resources to avert the emergency situation. The gaps are identified for corrective action in future.
