Safety and health vision

To meet our obligations, we have embraced a Safety and Health Vision throughout the organisation. Work must cease if safety cannot be assured. No activity is permitted to come before the safety and health of people. The potential hazards of our industry require the highest standards of safety and health.

We are committed to the prevention of injury and harm, and strive to continuously improve our safety and health performance. In implementing our Safety and Health Policy we continue to:

• identify, assess and manage risks that the workforce, customers and the public face due to our activity
• meet and, where appropriate, exceed legal and industry safety and health standards
• require the same standards of compliance from all contractors, partners and suppliers
• develop and support Western Power employees, and provide resources to meet our Safety and Health Vision
• communicate with and engage all interested people on safety and health matters in an open, transparent and timely manner
• systematically address deficiencies and deliver opportunities for improvement, through the application of our Safety and Health Management System
