It is Bladon's intent to demonstrate an ongoing and determined commitment to improving Health & Safety at work throughout our organisation by active Health and Safety leadership and workforce engagement. Bladon will provide adequate information and training to ensure management teams will deliver the policy and its objectives.

• Bladon will strive to ensure that supply chain colleagues operate an effective Health & Safety policy and associated arrangements.
• Communicate this policy with employees, stakeholders, business partners and supply chain colleagues.
• Review this policy on an annual basis or following legislative or major organisational changes.
