This smoking policy forms part of the overall Health & Safety Policy and any breach will be dealt with under the Company’s disciplinary procedure. Visitors, contractors and temporary members of staff are expected to abide by the terms of this policy.

Training

The company is committed to identifying the safety training needs on an ongoing basis.

All staff will be trained in emergency procedures and where appropriate, staff will be trained in the use of special machinery and equipment. All staff will be trained in the correct techniques involved in safe manual handling.

Reporting of Incidents

All employees are required to report all incidents and near misses, whether resulting in injury or not, to management. All accidents will be investigated by a member of management and a written report prepared. Corrective action will be taken where necessary to avoid a recurrence.

Accidents involving persons who are not members of staff but are visiting or working on the premises must also be reported.

Fire Procedures

In the event of a fire and providing there is no danger to the persons concerned, every effort should be made to extinguish or contain the fire pending the arrival of the fire brigade. The magnitude of the outbreak must dictate whether attacking the fire should take priority over reporting and evacuation.

All staff should be familiar with the exit routes and should also know the location and type of fire extinguishers in the office.

In the event of fire:

  • Activate the fire alarm.
  • Only if trained in basic fire-fighting should you attempt to extinguish the fire;
  • Do not under any circumstances, expose yourself to danger.
  • Leave the building by the nearest fire exit and proceed to designated assembly point.

If you hear the alarm you should:

  • Switch off any equipment under your control and leave the building by the nearest fire exit.
  • Do not stop to collect personal belongings.
  • Once outside, do not enter the building until you are told it is safe to do so.
  • Management will on occasion perform fire drills to ensure that procedures are known and followed in the event of a real fire.

All workers are responsible for assisting in managing the particular risks associated with their specific work environment. Risk management strategies include:

  • regular hazard inspections of the site/hotel environment
  • risk register detailing all WHS risks associated with the operation and activities of the hotel
  • documented WHS policies and procedures
  • risk assessments of newly purchased equipment
  • risk assessments for any change to work processes
