Health & Safety

 

At Martin G. Burt Ltd. we recognise the paramount importance of all Health and Safety issues.

 

All Management and Supervisory staff are fully qualified first aiders, having attended, and passed CITB first aid courses.  All company vehicles contain first aid boxes in case of an emergency.  To ensure safe performance on all our sites, the Company has engaged top safety consultants, MS Associates, to prepare a full safety manual.  All operatives need to be fully conversant and agree to comply with this manual at all times before they can be considered for employment with us.

 

Within the Health and Safety Manual, there is a signed statement of compliance with the manual, which ensures that all our operatives observe the following:

 

  • Comply with the Martin G. Burt Ltd. Safety Policy at all times and/or observe the prevailing safety policy whilst working on site.
  • Wear hard hats and protective boots at all times whilst working on site, unless by agreement with Site Management in areas where it is considered safe to work without head protection.
  • Be aware of and comply with the regulations concerning the Control Of Substances Hazardous to Health.

 

COSHH

 

We keep an extensive product library, continually updated, incorporating COSHH assessment sheets applicable to painting and decorating materials.  All product information is made available to our clients, to ensure that all required safety measures are implemented on site at all times.

 

We also aim to notify all Clients of changes in Health and Safety regulations, thereby assisting them with their own Health and Safety policies.  Our site operatives are kept fully informed of all risks associated with materials they are working with, and are issued with the relevant safety equipment wherever required.
