Safety and Health Overview

The Principles that underpin our approach to Safety and Health are:

  • Safety and Health comes first, always;
  • Incidents and injuries are preventable; and
  • Every individual:
    • Is accountable for the safety of themselves and others;
    • Is intolerant of unsafe practices and conditions;
    • Must identify, assess and manage hazards;
  • There is active involvement and open communication on safety and health at all levels; and
  • We will continually improve the safety and health capabilities of our people.

Our expectation of you as a service provider to us is that you will:

  • Undertake a risk assessment for all work performed and plan to manage the risks identified;
  • Actively work towards creating a safe working environment;
  • Provide and maintain plant, equipment and facilities that enable safe working practices;
  • Perform work for Horizon Power in a way that protects your safety and the safety of members of the public, third parties and Horizon Power personnel and property;
  • Cease work and take action if safety cannot be assured; and
  • Report all hazards and incidents to Horizon Power that result in, or have the potential to, cause injury and/or damage.
