Safety Policy
Your safety in the field is a constant concern for WHGCM.
We have taken every precaution to provide a safe and comfortable workplace. First and foremost, danger originates at the beginning of awareness and WHGCM requires all, to maintain the utmost concern for safety.
All employees are encouraged to give valuable input on safety improvement and give certain material rewards.
On a daily basis, a safety council will be held regularly by the safety manager. The safety manager will meet with management at any time to ensure that the safety program can be adjusted for enhancement at any time.
In addition to the safety meeting, we will also list all kinds of possible dangerous situations and regularly preach to employees. It is done so that everyone will keep the safety lessons in mind.
WHGCM is educated on any intentional or habitual violation of safety rules and is making sure that such behavior is not repeated.
Special safety training is required for those who violate safety rules, a test is given, and supervision by the safety inspector and safety manager is required.
The special supervision is not removed until the violation does not occur for two weeks.
Through continuous and in-depth education, common sense safety is taken to heart to ensure the greatest assurance of employee safety at work, on the road and at home.
Sincere concern for the health and well-being of each member of the team.
