MAVERICK’S SAFETY PROGRAM

At Maverick,we recognise that the greatest assets of our organisation are the people and the environment where we work and live.

We believe that corporate culture, individual behaviour, accountability and a safe environment take attention and effort. We continually work with our clients and coworkers to foster diligence and safety in all aspects of our operation. Safety performance is evidence-based. We believe actions and attitudes determine incident rates, number of lost days, injury and illness, and damage to equipment, property, and the environment.

Every job performed by Maverick begins with a written assessment to determine hazards and associated risks prior to performing work. Everyone at Maverick is involved in developing and maintaining safe work practises, procedures, and task analyses.

Although compliance with client requirements, local standards, and applicable legislation is always necessary, we believe that these are only effective if safety is intrinsic to Maverick’s culture and operations. Our commitment to safety is never sacrificed for any other consideration, and our safety record reflects this dedication.
