For ensuring total safe work environment and to prevent accident, the under mentioned control procedures will be adopted.
Safety Policy
A well defined safety policy is drafted and the task assigned to a safety officer. The safety policy acts as accident prevention and control programme.
The following points are kept in mind while drafting a safety policy,
Acceptable level of operational risks
Standard of industrial hygiene
Separate storage facility for larger quantities of hazardous chemicals and solvents.
Delegation of responsibility to employees as staff function
Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)
Vedants makes sure all the processes will be carried out within the prescribed operational parameters. It is of utmost importance to adhere to the SOP and all parameters, which automatically provide safety.
Safety Audit
Safety audit will be done at regular interval so as to ensure the following-up of SOP with parameters, critical points, safety aspects and all steps for prevention of accidents. In this respect we will draw a ''safety audit format'', which will be helpful during auditing by ''safety officer'' or their authorised representative.
