Safety is of utmost importance in any industry despite our best efforts, accidents and incidents occasionally occur. These unplanned or undesired events can adversely affect a company's work operations and may include work-related injuries, occupational illnesses, property damage, spills and fires. Critically all incidents should therefore be thoroughly investigated demonstrating a proven company-wide process of efficiency and effectiveness linked to the Safety Management System (SMS).
