HEALTH, SAFETY & ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (HSE-MS)

In any COMPANY HSE – MS, HSE should be accorded the same priority as other aspects of the company business. A safe work environment should be created and all employees would be required to maintain it. All employees should develop personal responsibility for HSE as it would benefit them as well as the company. The HSE-MS involves monitoring of HSE performance from all sites and location of COMPANY’s operation. At the head office, the report would involve every department or section. Regular HSE records and reports are essential in sustaining the system when fully implemented,
