Policy Brief And Purpose
TFix is committed to maintaining the highest standards of health and safety in all aspects of our work. We recognise that our operations, including IT decommissioning, WEEE collections, and on-site services, carry potential risks, and we take the wellbeing of our employees, clients, contractors, and visitors seriously. Our objective is to create and maintain a safe working environment, comply fully with health and safety legislation, and continually improve our practices to minimise risk.
Our Commitment
TFix complies with all relevant UK health and safety legislation, including the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and related regulations. Risk assessments are conducted for all projects to identify and control hazards. All staff are trained and competent in the duties they perform, and personal protective equipment is provided and used correctly. Vehicles, tools, and equipment are maintained to ensure they are safe and fit for purpose. We promote a culture of openness where hazards, incidents, and near misses are reported promptly, investigated thoroughly, and used as opportunities for improvement.
Roles And Responsibilities
Managerial and supervisory staff have defined responsibilities for implementing this policy. They are required to ensure that health and safety considerations are integrated into planning, risk assessments, and the day-to-day supervision of work. Employees and subcontractors are expected to co-operate and assist in the implementation of this policy by following established safe working procedures and carrying out their duties without risk to themselves, others, or the environment. This includes complying with training requirements, using protective equipment as instructed, and raising any concerns or incidents with management.
Safe Working Practices
Before any work begins, site-specific checks are carried out and risks are assessed. Equipment is disconnected and removed using approved safe handling techniques, with data-bearing devices managed securely to ensure both safety and information security. Manual handling, electrical disconnection, and the use of specialist equipment are only undertaken by trained and authorised personnel.
Continuous Improvement
TFix reviews and updates its health and safety practices regularly to reflect changes in legislation, industry standards, and operational experience. Lessons learned from incidents, audits, or client feedback are incorporated into procedures to strengthen safety performance across all areas of operation.
Client Assurance
By choosing TFix, clients are assured that all work is carried out under documented safety procedures, that staff are trained, equipped, and supervised appropriately, and that risks are assessed and controlled to protect people, property, and the environment.
