Occupational Health & Safety Policy

Policy statement

Connig Technoserve Limited recognises and accepts its responsibility to provide a safe and healthy working environment for employees, contractors, customers and visitors who use its premises. This supports the prevention of injury and ill health while delivering the sale and installation of telecommunications equipment and sites, and end-to-end telecommunications services.

To promote a positive health and safety culture, Connig provides the information, training, instruction and supervision needed for compliance. The company operates a low-blame culture, encouraging employees to report hazards and near misses without fear of reprisal so root causes can be identified and recurrence prevented.
