Safety

Safe People over Swift Profits.  

Safety is the most important success indicator we measure and it is Matcon's goal to achieve and maintain HSE excellence by embedding strategies, policies, and standards that promote the safety of our personnel, contractors, and the general public throughout all our business activities.

Personal Safety Protecting Yourself

The ongoing success of the Matcon Health and Safety program is evident in the significant improvements in both our Lagging and Leading Safety indicators across Matcon site operations. Matcon’s goal is a Zero Harm to personnel and the environment.

On Site Safety
Protecting Each Other

Matcon maintains a safe workplace by relentlessly putting our HSE through the rigours of quality control. This level of safety quality is achieved by educating our workers, measuring ongoing performance, reviewing systems and programs and setting continuous improvement targets to ensure that we are leaders in safety and work execution in our industry.

Company Wide Safety

Weekly inspections validating the standards and policies are conducted, along with field audits by senior managers to ensure the program is functioning as required. In addition, Matcon holds a monthly Joint Occupational Health and Safety Committee (JOHSC) meeting, which involves employees from all of Matcon’s divisions

Safety is ours to own, and only through a high level of care, attention, collaboration and inclusiveness can we champion an environment of health and safety
