- Injury to any person.

The Policy is applicable to all Okaz Employees, includes the Employees of Sub-Contractors, Self Employed Persons, Consulting Practices and the Client.
The application and promotion of the Policy is the responsibility of Senior Management of this Company. Whilst duties and tasks may be delegated, the overall responsibility remains that of Senior Management to ensure that the Company complies with all relevant statutory health and safety legislation, common law and Approved Codes of Practice.
All Company Employees, regardless of their status, are expected to abide by the principles of this Policy as and where applicable. We also expect the cooperation of all those mentioned within the Scope section of this Policy to work in such a way that accidents to themselves and others will be prevented.
Individuals can make important contributions to the development and implementation of policies and arrangements. The Company will give all opportunities for participation in this process and actively encourages involvement of Employees either directly or through their representatives.
To ensure that this Policy can be successfully implemented, the Company and its Partners will provide such funds as is reasonably necessary.
