Health, safety, environment and quality policy statement
Water Works Ltd is committed to providing safe, high quality, environmentally
responsible services that meet the requirements and needs of our customers, many of
whom are in the hydrocarbons sector. Two of the key concerns of the sector, and
therefore of Waterworks’ business success, are high Health and Safety standards and
environmentally responsible techniques and technologies. Waterworks Limited
believes that one of its most important functions is the prevention of accidents and ill
health. We do not wish any of our employees or any other person to suffer as the
result of activities or work processes. To this end, we intend to comply rigorously with
all Health and Safety Legislation, Codes of Practice and best guidance and work
methods available.
As a wet asset management company, Waterworks recognizes that all our activities
can have an impact on the environment and that these impacts are both local and
global. Impacts arise from the consumption of raw materials and energy, transport and
emissions to air, land and water. Protecting and enhancing the environment by
preventing pollution is an integral component of our business operations.
In order to promote a strong environmental and safety culture, to prevent injury and ill-
health and to deliver high environmental and quality standards, Waterworks has the
following HSEQ objectives:
1. Implement and maintain an Integrated Health, Safety, Health, Safety, Environment
and Quality Management Systems that is aligned with ISO 18001:2007, ISO 9001:

2. Seek suppliers, subcontractors and customers who have the same commitment to
health and safety, quality and the environment and so encouraging mutual and
beneficial relationships with them.
3. Provide a system of employee involvement, motivation and training and supervision
that encourages the achievement of HSEQ objectives.
4. Focus on our customers requirements and strive to meet or exceed them. Conducts
our activities in a manner that monitors, minimizes and where possible prevents

5. Documents, reviews and minimises waste through recovery, re-use and recycling in

6. Endeavour to identify and comply with legal and other requirements (such as
ACOPs and customer requirements) by which the organization is affected.
7. Endeavour for continuous improvement of the effectiveness of the Health, Safety,
Health, Safety, Environment and Quality Management System and its performance
through using an iterative, process-based approach of plan / do / review / correct.
The Director (Helen Fazakerley) is responsible for communicating the HSEQ Policy
and making sure that all those affected by our work understand it. She reviews the
policy and RAMS annually and as required. She communicates the policy (and any
changes) to employees at induction, at staff reviews, at internal audit meetings and
during the Management Review. She communicates the policy and changes to sub-
contractors at regular sub-contractor meetings, site audits and workshops with sub-
contractor staff.
All HSEQ Targets are reviewed as part of Waterworks’ Annual Management Review in
April. New annual targets are communicated to employees and sub-contractor staff
through the channels of communication described above.
To achieve the HSEQ policy and its objectives the Managing Director also undertakes
to:
a. Assign the necessary resources (including equipment, training and access to
expert advice)
b. Measure and review the objectives and targets
c. Maintain the Health, Safety and Health, Safety, Environment and Quality
