Protection of workers from injury or occupational disease is a major continuing objective and is paramount at North Drilling.

North Drilling will make every effort to provide a safe, healthy work environment. Each employee of North Drilling is responsible for adhering to the safety program as well as its continuous development, and shall be dedicated to the ongoing objective of reducing risk of injury. All employees and others on company or client worksites are responsible for obeying all safety rules, following safe work procedures, wearing and using personal protective equipment, participating in safety training programs and informing supervisors of any unsafe work conditions. Everyone has the right and responsibility to refuse work when unsafe conditions exist.

North Drilling as employer, is ultimately responsible for worker health and safety. We give our personal commitment that we will comply with our duties under the Act, such as taking every reasonable precaution for the protection of workers in the workplace.

Supervisors will be held accountable for the health and safety of workers under their supervision. Supervisors are subject to various duties in the workplace, including the duty to ensure that machinery and equipment are safe and that workers work in compliance with established safe work practices and procedures. All supervisors, employees, contractors, and subcontractors, and visitors who knowingly violate safety rules will face disciplinary action. Individuals who do not fulfill their safety responsibilities are accountable for their actions, and for any problems their negligence creates.

It is in the best interest of all parties to consider health and safety in every activity. Commitment to health and safety must form an integral part of this organization, from the president to the workers.
