Health and Safety.

Health & Safety is of prime importance to Lincolnshire Doors Ltd. We aim to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare of our employees while they are at work and of others who may be affected by our undertakings, and compliance with all the relevant legislation.

We will take all reasonable steps to implement, monitor and maintain safe plant, substances, equipment, working environments and working practices within our organisation. We will continuously improve our management systems, in order to protect employees and others from risks to their health, safety and welfare whilst engaged in work related activities. We recognise that safety is the responsibility of everyone and is not just a function of management. Employees will have specific duties and responsibilities to comply with the letter and spirit of our Health and Safety Policy. Employees have specific responsibilities to take reasonable care of themselves and others that could be affected by their activities and to co-operate to achieve the standards required.
