Commitment to Safety. Bombardier Transportation seeks to promote the health and safety of our employees and to do everything possible to prevent occupational accidents and illnesses. It is therefore important that Supervisors understand how everyone contributes to a safe and healthy work environment. Supervisors must: • Set an example to other employees by following the established safety policies of the Site. • Ensure employees are aware of the hazards and dangers in the workplace and how to work safely. • Follow and conform to all current statutory requirements and workplace health and safety policies and procedures applicable to the Newark Site. • Ensure the appropriate type and level of training to enable employees to perform their work safely. • Make available to every employee appropriate equipment to ensure Health and Safety. • Maintain a vigilant and continuing interest in all Health and Safety matters relevant to both company and staff. • Immediately report any safety violation and accidents by complying with established Accident Reporting procedures and ensure that all required forms/paperwork is completed with the proper details. • Actively participate in the investigation of all safety accidents, violations and near misses that occur during the supervisors shift and assist in any other safety investigation, as required. • Maintain confidentiality during the investigation of an accident/incident to ensure employee’s reasonable expectation of privacy and so as not to compromise the investigation. • Always wear or use the protective equipment that is required for the task or location. • Report any hazard you find in the workplace to the appropriate person. • Supervisors must ensure they understand the safety requirements of the job prior to starting work, as outlined in the System Safety Program Plan (SSPP). If they are not comfortable that the task can be completed safely or have not been properly trained, they should notify the System Safety Manager and the Line Manager. A failure to comply with this Commitment to Safety will result in disciplinary action up to and including discharge.
