At SWE we insist that everyone has the right to come to work with the expectation that they will return home safe and healthy, every day.
Looking after our people is one of our core values. This is not mere lip-service. We are committed to a safe and healthy work environment for our employees, contractors, and the communities in which we operate.
Our underlying focus is simple: everyone home safe, every day.
We operate comprehensive Health and Safety procedures that begin with new employee induction and continue through all our day-to-day operations – and are underpinned by ACC Workplace Safety Management Practices Secondary Accreditation.
We are currently preparing for Tertiary level accreditation.
We seek continuous improvements to achieve excellence in the management of health and safety in all of our workplaces.
Using the Swiss cheese model, we have adopted a holistic approach to accident prevention and health promotion. We recognise that everything we do (from company culture to organisation and process design) must work together to provide adequate defensive layers against possible accident situations. Our focus on Health and Safety is therefore throughout every ‘layer’ of our company, pervading everything we do.
Our plant and machinery includes everything from a full 150m2 engineering workshop (incorporating portable gas plants, welding machines, and pumps) to excavators, trenchers and trucks – as well as our fleet of service vehicles.
In short, everything we need to get the job done, in full and on time, to the highest possible standards.
We're ready to listen
