Safety is not a department. It is how we operate.
Every drilling, blasting and industrial assignment is planned with people, plant and environment in view. The method is agreed before the work begins.
Operational discipline
HSE at JOSECO is treated as a condition of work. Supervision, induction, personal protective equipment and stop-work authority are part of how a shift is run, not an afterthought attached to a contract.
Environmental care covers how we enter ground, how we manage waste and noise, and how we leave a site. HSE policies and supporting documents are available on request for prequalification.
Before work starts
The checks that have to be true before a crew enters the ground. If one is missing, the shift does not start.
- Everyone on the assignment is inducted to the site and the method
- A written method is agreed with the client before mobilisation
- Licences, permits and approvals for regulated work are confirmed
- Plant pre-start checks are completed and defects are reported
- The crew is briefed on exclusion zones and stop-work authority
Four conditions of work
- People
- Induction, supervision and the authority to stop work sit with the crew, not only with management.
- Method
- The way the ground is entered is agreed and written down before the shift starts.
- Plant
- Machines are fit for the duty they are given. Defects are reported so they can be acted on.
- Environment
- Noise, dust, water and waste are planned with the assignment, not handled after it.
Regulated work
All regulated blasting and explosives-related activities are undertaken subject to applicable licences, permits, safety requirements and regulatory approvals.
Method statements are issued against a specific assignment and shared with the client, not published as a general download. Awareness training for crews working near blasting is available through the training programme.
HSE documents for prequalification
Policies and supporting HSE documents are sent on request to the named contact in your process.
