The Facilities Manager has overall responsibility for health and safety and the operation of this policy; s/he is the Principal Health and Safety Officer with day-to-day responsibility for health and safety matters.
All staff must also recognise that everyone shares responsibility for achieving healthy and safe working conditions. You must consider the health and safety implications of your acts and/or omissions and take reasonable care for your health and safety and that of others by observing safety rules applicable to you and following instructions for the use of equipment.
Any health and safety concerns should be reported to the Principal Health and Safety Officer.
You must co-operate with the Principal Health and Safety Officer, supervisors and managers on health and safety matters and comply with any health and safety instructions.
Failure to comply with health and safety rules and instructions or with the requirements of this policy may be treated as misconduct and dealt with under our Disciplinary Procedure.
All staff must use equipment in accordance with operating instructions, instructions given by managers and any relevant training. Any fault with, damage to or concern about any equipment or its use must immediately be reported to the Principal Health and Safety Officer. No member of staff should attempt to repair equipment unless trained and designated to do so.
