Health and safety

Cunico Resources recognises that its principal asset is its people and is fully committed to the achievement of the highest standards in Health and Safety (H&S) performance.

Through the implementation of its H&S Policy and adherence to strict operating procedures, Cunico Resources is committed to its aim of zero fatalities and to the elimination of illness, injury and accidents resulting from its operations.

Goals

The H&S Policy commits senior management to a systematic, practical approach to H&S and is supported by a full H&S management system. The management standards follow globally recognised policies and best practice guidelines and are designed to ensure consistency of approach across operations.

Some key elements of this include:

• appointment of competent, trained personnel
• establishment of steering committees and emergency response teams at site
• provision of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for all employees and visitors with contractor obligations to do the same
• establishment of inspection, monitoring and reporting procedures including systems for near miss reporting, and accident and incident investigation
• implementation of training and skills development
• implementation of risk assessments
• development and monitoring of compliance with Safe Operating Practices
