The Contractor Health and Safety Policy serves as a fundamental document for organizations operating in India that engage contractors for various works and services. This policy becomes essential in light of India's evolving safety regulations and the increasing focus on workplace safety standards across industries. The document addresses the requirements set forth by various Indian legislations, including the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020, and state-specific regulations. It provides detailed guidelines on safety procedures, risk assessments, emergency responses, and compliance requirements, while clearly defining roles and responsibilities for all stakeholders involved in contractor operations. The policy is designed to be adaptable across different industry sectors while maintaining compliance with Indian legal requirements and international safety standards.
