Occupational Health & Safety Policy Statement
Codex’s mission as an Irish family-owned office provider is to listen and adapt to our business customers’ needs in an efficient and sustainable manner. Everything we do is underlined by our five values of customer-first, integrity, innovation, ambition, and belonging. We care about your people, our people and other people and will not remain stationary in our drive for excellence.
Codex’s vision is to put people first and be the best and most sustainable B2B office supplier in Ireland.
We recognise that through the day-to-day operation of our business, we are subject to potential Occupational Health & Safety (“OH&S”) risks. This policy communicates our commitment to OH&S and to build an awareness and understanding of OH&S throughout the business.
Codex will:
- Provide safe and healthy working conditions, including well maintained plant and equipment, in order to prevent work-related injury and ill health due to our OH&S hazards and risks.
- Provide an adequate hierarchy of control of the OH&S risks arising from our work activities and continually work to eliminate hazards and reduce risks.
- Fulfil relevant legal and other requirements.
- Regularly review and audit our practices and continually look for ways to improve the OH&S management system.
- Appoint and support a Health and Safety Officer and Committee to help set and achieve OH&S objectives, and develop, implement and encourage participation in initiatives to raise awareness of OH&S.
- Consult with all employees and their representatives on matters affecting their health and safety.
- Provide training to all employees, both permanent and temporary, on the importance of OH&S, and to ensure that they can competently carry out their tasks while preventing accidents, incidents, dangerous occurrences and near misses.
This policy is communicated to all staff via our internal HR system and intranet and is available publicly to interested parties via our website. It is a controlled document that is reviewed annually.
