CSCP accepts its responsibility to make our workers, clients, associates, students and our surroundings safe. We have set HSE standards for our organisation to handle any problem that might occur. We try to achieve our goal of zero accidents, with no lost time or reportable injuries, no environmental incidents, or damage to property. We continuously protect our public and employees and improve their safety conditions because our long-term success will be the result of protecting the environment in which they work and progress.
OUR POLICY
Our policy is to set certain goals through which we can ensure public, students and environmental safety as well as the economic stability of our workers. We provide a safe working environment with the latest safety equipment, a safe work system, and skills that, coupled with a higher level of professional training, ensure the safety of employees in job areas. We are thus meeting the needs of both current customers and employees and those of the future. For this, we keep abreast of future trends and techniques.
We appreciate the initiative, respect privacy rules and ensure the health and safety of employees by implementing measures that are both professional and conducive to a positive working atmosphere.
