Health, Safety & Wellbeing
The safety, health and wellbeing of all who may be affected by our operations and activities is our top priority. We provide all our employees with safe plant and safe systems of work; sufficient information, instruction, training and supervision; a safe working environment; and adequate facilities and arrangements for their welfare at work. All working activities are covered by the Health and Safety at Work (Jersey) Law 1989.
At ROK, the safety and well-being of every individual is our utmost priority. Nothing matters more to us than ensuring that everyone returns home safely, every single day. We are raising the bar on Health and Safety through several initiatives including our behavioural safety campaign ‘Home Safe’, making five-point PPE mandatory on all sites, training mental health first aiders, workforce health testing and our commitment to Behavioural Safety Leadership. We are fully committed to protecting our workforce and all those affected by our work, and we remain steadfast in our pursuit of ensuring everyone returns Home Safe.
All employees working on Rok building sites carry a Jersey Safety Awareness Test (JSAT) card, which they received after successfully completing the online test. JSAT can assist employers in complying with the general duties placed on them under Articles 3 and 5 of the Health and Safety at Work (Jersey) Law 1989 and the Health and Safety (Management in Construction) (Jersey) Regulations 2016.
