COMPANY HEALTH, SAFETY, SECURITY & ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
No activity Bertram Drilling Inc. is involved with is more important than ensuring measures are in place to protect the health and safety of our employees, clients, suppliers, contractors, and those who live and work close to our operations. Every employee and contractor is entitled to work under the safest possible conditions.

To be successful, such a program must embody the proper attitudes towards all aspects of safety on the part of the management, supervisors, employees and contractors. It also requires cooperation in all safety and health matters between all fellow workers.
On each job site Health, Safety, Security and Environmental supervisor/advisor and/or the Line Managers will be responsible for implementing the safety program.
