Safety
Policy
Roadmaster Trucking, Inc. is aware of its responsibility
for the safety and health of all its employees and those providing
services to Roadmaster as independent contractors. RM
considers no phase of a job, operation or administration to
be more important than accident prevention and will not create
unacceptable risks to human health or the environment.
Roadmaster considers safety to be a tool of production because
the efficiency of any industrial operation can be measured directly
by its ability to control unnecessary loss. Accidents
resulting in personal injury and damaged property and equipment
represent needless waste that must be controlled. It is,
therefore, Roadmaster's policy:
- Recognize and accept responsibility for establishing
the guidelines and the framework within which a good safety
program can operate;
- Assist all supervisors in their efforts to conduct and
enforce the total Safety Program;
- Emphasize to all personnel that they have a personal
responsibility to themselves and to their fellow employees
to follow safe work practices;
- Comply with the safety regulations issued under the Occupational
Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and the Department of Transportation
(DOT) as well as other state and local laws relating to
safety and health matters;
- Conduct an ongoing accident prevention program with appropriate
documentation as evidence of Empire's commitment to control
loss, both personal and material.
Roadmaster encourages all of its employees and contractors to
develop and demonstrate an attitude that will reflect this policy
and to observe the safety rules at all times. It
is imperative that all personnel recognize that Empire must
have a total safety effort from each and every person involved
in order to achieve our goal of safety and loss prevention.
