RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY
Professional Cleaning Australia recognises its obligation to take all reasonable precautions to provide and maintain, so far as practicable, an environment that is safe and without risks to health for employees, clients and visitors.
The absence of minimisation of risk also includes occupational health in prevention of accidental exposure to agents and situations which may cause occupational diseases or injury. To meet its obligations, Professional Cleaning Australia will take all reasonable steps to:
- Observe and implement relevant statutory requirements;
- Promote workplace safety by training, information and instruction;
- Ensure adequate instructions are given to employees in working procedures;
- Ensure information of any hazard to their health, which is known to be associated with the work is understood;
- Ensure situations of work practices which are unsafe or harmful are reported immediately to that corrective action can be taken;
- Encourage each person to regard accident prevention as an individual responsibility;
- Require managers to apply the general safety rules of Professional Cleaning Australia;
- Establish procedures to minimise risk of injury or health;
- Maintain control (in the workplace) of harmful substances (ie chemicals, fire hazards);
- Ensure machines and equipment are maintained in a safe condition and necessary personal protective devices are available in the workplace;
- Maintain property control over the storage, use and disposal of harmful substances
