Health and Safety

Commitment

Mascot Engineering acknowledges that the provision of a safe and healthy work environment for employees, contractors and visitors is not just a moral and legal responsibility but also a prerequisite for it to achieve its primary mission of manufacturing and supplying quality products.  Mascot Engineering has developed a Work Health & Safety policy with documented procedures and processes to ensure this commitment to protecting its human resources also extends to ensuring the Company’s operations do not place the local community at risk of injury or property damage. Our grating and access covers are manufactured in a facility accredited to OHSAS 18001.

Mascot Engineering hold all relevant insurance policies regarding public liability, cyber security, workers compensation and more.

Environment

As a third-generation business and one that has been manufacturing in Australia since 1920, our commitment to minimising environmental impacts is at the core of Mascot Engineering’s operational activities, right across the entire supply chain. Our grating and access covers are manufactured in a facility that is accredited to ISO14001:2015 as well as ISO9001. Mascot Engineering’s manufacturing facility in Smithfield NSW utilises solar energy and both product and water recycling is used in the manufacturing process.  Our focus on sustainability doesn’t finish when the products leave our site either… Mascot Engineering’s unique GRC products have lower environmental impact (approx. 40% less*) than the equivalent steel reinforced product. This coupled with efficient transportation methods ensures our focus on sustainability for future generations is forefront of our ethos.
