Environmental Statement
It has long been the philosophy of Abell Pest Control that pest control goes far beyond mere application and use of pesticides. To this end, we continually offer education and training to those concerned with non-chemical measures which will reduce the need for pesticide usage. As pest control and elimination are critical to the integrity of a safe working environment and integral to Abell Pest Control fulfilling our clients' satisfaction, some pesticide usage may be deemed necessary as a practical avenue for control.
When selecting control measures, we at Abell Pest Control take a holistic approach and only include pesticides and methods which will require minimal usage of chemicals, which have been carefully scrutinized by regulatory agencies both for their effectiveness and environmental impact. Through our support of research and development, we continue to keep abreast of the latest technologies of control measures and alternative products to satisfy our clients' needs.
Health and Safety
It is the policy of Abell Pest Control to provide a safe working environment for all workers. This policy will be achieved through the effective implementation, maintenance and upgrading of our Health & Safety Program.
Our Health & Safety policies and programs have been formulated based on the following beliefs and philosophies:
- Health & Safety is of paramount importance in the conduct of our business. All Occupational Health & Safety Laws, Acts and statutes are considered the minimal requirement for safety.
- Every worker has the responsibility to work in compliance with company safety programs, policies, procedures, and all applicable legislation. Failure to do so will result in disciplinary action.
- Branch Management is responsible and will be accountable for providing a safe work environment and ensuring all reasonable precautions (training, equipment, procedures and polices) have been taken to ensure Health & Safety of all workers.
- Safety is cost effective! A safe site is an efficient and well-managed site.
Abell Pest Control considers all the above requirements to be achievable and recognizes that the goal of a safe work environment is dependent on the active support and participation of everyone involved.
