  • Looking Ahead

We will continue to strive to improve our health and safety performance and environmental impact.

Whilst each part of the Business will continue to pursue an improvement programme best suited to its needs, there are common themes and direction.

The health and safety performance will be made more robust by increasing staff involvement and, where appropriate, the introduction of behavioural safety programmes.

We will continue to focus on CO2 emissions by energy conservation programmes and improving our measures relating to travel and transport.

The introduction of lean manufacture and six-sigma techniques will contribute to the reduction of waste at source and there will be continued efforts to improve recycling and reduce waste to landfill.

Newly acquired sites will be incorporated into the Group.  With this HSE Audit and reporting programmes activity in mind, the following 2008 targets have been recommended to the Board.
                                                                    

 Lost Time Accident Frequency Rate -5%
 OSHA Recordable Incidents -5%
 Energy Consumption -5% (normalised for production)
 Waste -10% (normalised for production)
