SAFETY FIRST
THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THE RIGHT JOB FOR A SAFE WORKPLACE
At Bayonne Construction, we prioritise the well-being and safety of our employees, clients, and fellow New Zealanders.
We want to see everyone go home to their family at the end of every workday unharmed and satisfied.
To maintain and continuously improve our safety programs, we have a dedicated Health & Safety and Quality Assurance team who are always working alongside our Senior Management Team to uphold the high internal and legislative standards we set for ourselves.
ROBUST HEALTH AND SAFETY WORK SYSTEM
Bayonne Construction has a comprehensive Health & Safety framework (policies, procedures, SOP’s, JSA’s and safe work methods).
Our Health & Safety management policies are deeply ingrained in our organisation and easily accessible to all staff members at any time.
