Sustainable Work Practices Team Charter


 * Reason to exist: **Our team purpose is to produce a safety and sustainability policy. The purpose of the safety policy is to inform everybody in the workplace of how they should perform safely and how to minimize risks. The purpose of the sustainability policy is to inform all people how to work in a way that doesn’t harm our environment and exhaust our resources.

We can for fill our purpose by researching and finding out risks in the workplace and ways in which we can reduce environmental harm. We will alert the people in the workplace of our findings and try and convince people to work in a way that is safe and not harmful to the environment.

We expect that everyone will try to follow our policy and that will make a far safer work environment for everyone. Hopefully our policy will help people realise that they need to stop harming the environment and keep the workplace a much nicer and cleaner place to be in.

It is important to have people who are trying to make the workplace a more safe and sustainable place. If there weren’t anyone trying to make the workplace a safer and more sustainable place then injury and maybe even death will be much more common and also we would be working in a way that would be harming our environment more then what we already are.

Our mission is to
 * Mission: **

 * Recommend how to eliminate hazards

**__<span style="color: #365f91; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 34px;">Sustainability Policy __**

//<span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">Here 2 help //<span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">has developed a sustainability policy to help inform our employees about being environmentally friendly and to help our organisation minimise our expenditures, allowing us to maximise our profits. <span style="display: block; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">The purpose of the sustainability policy is to help inform our employees about the sustainable issues towards our resources and how to be environmentally friendly. The development of this sustainability policy also helps our organisation both economically and socially.

<span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Here are some issues associated with sustainability and actions on how to improve the issues. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">All recyclable used resources are to be placed in the recycling bin, this includes all plastic items, scrap papers, used boxes, aluminum cans and other aluminum used resources. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">Fewer trees will be logged; this will decrease the amount of flora and fauna extinction in the environment. Carbon emissions will decrease in the atmosphere. This would help the environment around us. || = = = =

 * <span style="background-color: #000000; color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">Office wastage || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">All office wastage should be disposed in appropriate bins.
 * <span style="background-color: #000000; color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">Water usage || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">Water in the workplace has to be used wisely. Leaking taps or water pipes are to be reported as soon as possible if seen so the problem is solved immediately. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">The company will save money on paying water bills. It also saves water for the other important purposes in the society. ||
 * <span style="background-color: #000000; color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">Electricity usage || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">All electricity switches are to be turned off after using the sockets, lights, fans and other electrical appliances. Minimize the usage of electricity. For e.g. during summer, open the curtains and let the sun light into the room to provide lighting. Use energy-saving heaters in the building during winter. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">This helps save electricity and energy. It helps reduce the effect of global warming. On the hand it decreases the risk of fire accidents in the company building. ||
 * <span style="color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;"> Electrical appliances usage || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">All electrical appliances are to be used for necessary use only. Appliances such as computers, fax machines, projectors, monitors, PC units, sound speakers and other appliances used in the workplace should be turned off after used. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px;">This again saves energy, reduces electricity bills, fire accident hazards lowered and so is the effect of global warming. ||

This can result in somebody dieing || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">It is very common for an electrical fire to occur as a result of someone trying to put out a fire that is near power points and electronics such as computers and printers and there are lots of power points and electronics in our workplace. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">There should be more powder fire extinguishers so that people don’t feel obliged to use the fire hose. Also people should be warned about how water extinguishers can start electrical fires if you are not extra careful || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">The Occupational Health and Safety Officer ||  ||

__<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Sustainable Health & Safety in the Workplace __

<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Health and safety in the workplace will be sustained by having regular Toolbox meetings to discuss issues related to occupational health and safety at the workplace. These meetings will be held every two weeks by the Health and Safety Officer.

<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">In the OH&S meeting we will discuss:
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Health and Safety standards
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Hazards in the workplace
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Risks associated with hazards
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Systems and Procedures to deal with hazards
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">How to prevent hazards
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Training to prevent workplace injuries or accidents and
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Any other Health and Safety related issues will also be discussed.

<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">There will also be a “suggestions box” in the office and on the wiki space for employees to make suggestions as to how health and safety could be improved in the business. If any health and safety issues need to be addressed urgently, the committee will hold an emergency meeting to discuss the hazards and risk levels involved.
