"A commitment to health, safety and the environment is at the very heart of our company."

COMMITTED TO SAFETY

Our business in general involves physically tough, demanding, and potentially hazardous situations. The very nature of the work we do exposes us to a variety of hazards. That's why we've developed a comprehensive health and safety program that has been implemented throughout the company.

Employees attend regular health and safety orientation meetings and are provided with a detailed manual outlining safe work practices. A company wide Safety Committee is responsible for assessing workplace hazards, recommending solutions, and identifying employee safety training needs.

Quantum Murray LP and our subsidiaries are committed to ensuring we conduct our business in a manner that protects the safety, health and well being of our workers and our environment. We integrate this commitment into our business planning and operations by establishing and maintaining an effective and pro-active Environment, Health and Safety Management System (EHSMS).

We all take responsibility for

  • Focusing our efforts on injury and illness prevention by proactively looking for ways to identify and eliminate any unsafe or unhealthy conditions that may occur in our workplaces;
  • Seeking training and information to equip ourselves to perform our work in the safest manner possible;
  • Being aware of and complying with all applicable health, safety and environmental legislation and regulations, our own internal EHSMS program, including our Best Practices and where applicable, the client’s safety program;
  • Ensuring our Manager’s, Supervisors and Workers are accountable and take responsibility for safeguarding their personal safety and well being as well as that of their co-workers;
  • Assessing and managing the environmental, health and safety risks associated with all aspects of our business to protect our employees, our shareholders, clients and the communities in which we operate;
  • Consistently striving for safety excellence, including taking ownership for continually evolving and improving our EHSMS and foster a culture which recognizes that our employees are our most important resource.

Training

All staff receive training in the safe handling of hazardous materials, as well as site specific training to assist them in carrying out their work safely. All new employees attend formal orientation sessions that provide them with an overview of the company's safety programs and work practices.

Quantum also ensures that its employees are kept up to date on developments in the industry by providing ongoing workshops and training covering regulatory changes, workplace safety, and the latest developments in technology.
