The Group recognises that every employee has a right to a working environment that is not detrimental to his / her health and well being, and conducts business in an environmentally sensitive manner. Driven by our commitment to HSE and our proud HSE record, Bateman takes great care to design safe projects for its clients, which also minimise environmental impact.
Bateman develops and sustains a culture of continuous improvement by nurturing safety, health and the protection of the environment. We do this through implementation of policies, procedures or systems and sharing and demanding responsibility for health, safety and environment from all employees, contractors, customers and the communities associated with our business operations.
Bateman's impressive safety record is largely due to its commitment to the principles associated with sustainable business development, which include an integrated approach to HSE management. The ultimate aim is to ensure an HSE culture that moves away from mere compliance, to one of creating an on and off the job culture of preventing accidents and incidents. This integrated approach focuses on achieving this through a proactive mind set, meaningful participation and positive discipline and persistence.
The evolution of health and safety practices from merely legal compliance to accepting HSE
management as an integral part of the overall business management process, has meant a
significant shift in the roles in the company, from the role that employees are playing, to the role of upper management, in reducing or eliminating occupational risk. Bateman has a comprehensive management process to enhance execution of daily management of HSE programmes in the work place, which reflect the core company values of Accountability, Customer Focus, Continuous Improvement, Coaching & Mentoring and Teamwork.
Application of behaviour-based values that empower employees and management to constantly think about what they are about to do, then identify any possible risk and produce means of how to eliminate the risks, has further contributed to Bateman's proud HSE performance.
