The safety of people on or near Hawkins sites is the top priority for Hawkins. It is for this reason that Hawkins is a foundation member of Site Safe New Zealand; the company is committed to a structured Health & Safety policy and we are continually striving for improvement in this area. As a matter of policy the company recognises and accepts its responsibility to ensure that each of its employees and subcontractors shall be provided with a safe and healthy place in which to work. A site specific safety plan is developed for each project.

Included in the plan are:

• site induction procedures;
• site safety requirements and toolbox meetings;
• requirements and procedures for inspection and testing of equipment;
• hazard identification and hazard control procedures;
• evacuation plans;
• site safety audit procedures;
• accident investigation and reporting procedures; and
•  subcontractor safety management.

Hawkins is ISO14001 accredited. We are a business with a successful environmental consultancy and will go to any length to ensure the protection of the environment on and around our project sites.
