Safety & Sustainability

Integration Of LTI Calculator Days Since Last ‘Lost Time Injury’

Our Approach.

Our company looks at safety and sustainability as more than just a requirement. They work synonymously and ensure the wellbeing of our people, communities and our environment – three elements that we believe work in tandem. As an industry leader, we are aware of our role on a national level and are committed to presenting our company as a prime example of responsible safety and sustainability.

Safeguarding Our Team

Our company is nothing without our expert management and talented team. We strive to safeguard the members of our company through a variety of practices, programs and policies which target their physical, mental and professional wellbeing. Although this should go without saying for any company, we are proud of our commitment to safety, human rights and respect for every person at our company.

Our safety management is a core component of our company’s success. We prioritise the health of our employees through our internal communications and processes. Our team is rewarded based on value and quality rather than mediocrity and quantity. We know that our industry is difficult, with long days and complex jobs, which is why we are committed to the happiness of each employee. To achieve this, we make it possible for people to enjoy a healthy work-life balance which will ultimately provide job satisfaction, productivity and contentment.

Safety As A Priority

At Austral SF, we care. We ensure that every moment of every day is an opportunity for us to keep you safe at work, and promise to keep all of our stakeholders safe, too.

As part of our safety framework, all of our team members are mandated to undergo the site induction processes. Our health and safety team includes an In-House Safety Manager, Return-to-Work Coordinator, Physiotherapist and Doctor. We also employ the services of a rehab provider as well as a claims management company to manage compliance and ensure that our team are safely back at work.

Our process is focused on one thing: the safety of all.
