AMACO puts the safety and health of its employees, subcontractors, clients and communities where it does business as its first priority. If a job cannot be performed safely, it will not be performed. We respect a ‘safety first’ attitude by and for our fellow colleagues. Good safety standards will be strictly selected and incorporated to a systematic approach to the way we work. Continuous feedback will be encouraged to improve our safety standards. We will not accept shortcuts which circumvent safety.

Our working environment will instinctively feel safer based on the following safety principles and behaviors to promoting a safe workplace:

• Safety is a first consideration when we make decisions.
• Our leaders will demonstrate a day-to-day commitment to safety.
• We will ‘stop and act’ to correct situations that could harm ourselves or others.
• We encourage an inquisitive attitude and behavior towards challenging assumptions and considering potential adverse safety and health consequences of planned actions.
• Our safety systems will be applied effectively to ensure all hazards are identified and addressed before work begins.
• We will embrace organizational learning to improve the way we do things, and we will openly examine our operations and solicit feedback from external resources.

AMASCO workers are expected to protect themselves and others against accidents. All accidents and incidents are preventable. An accident-free workplace is achieved through careful planning, close attention to hazard controls, worker involvement in task planning, and halting work in the face of uncertainty. AMASCO management will continue to promote safety throughout the work environment. We will all take pride in doing our work to a high standard of safety and wellbeing of those who work with us or are impacted by the work we do.
