UEC’s Employee Safety and Hazard Report Form was developed in order to provide a means for employees to report any unsafe work conditions and practices or hazards that exist in the workplace. Employees are advised that the use of this form or other reports of unsafe practices are protected by law. Employees can make the report on an anonymous basis without fear of reprisal for exercising their rights in communicating safety concerns. UEC Human Resources Department will investigate any report and advise the employee who provided the information of the Human Resources Department’s response and action. In addition, this form can also be used by employees to make a safety suggestion or recommendation regarding occupational health and safety.
