| Content | 19 Corporate and Social Responsibility Continued Oxford Instruments plc All major sites have a responsibility to recycle waste materials. These materials include cardboard, paper, wood and metals. Employees are encouraged to recycle paper, packaging, bottles and cans. All corporate literature is printed on environmentally friendly paper using Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) accredited printers. This, together with the vegetable oils used to coat the paper, means that the documents are bio-degradable and recyclable. Health and Safety Oxford Instruments is committed to providing the highest standards of safety in the workplace for its employees and to the continual improvement of its health and safety (H&S) performance. Responsibility for Health and Safety lies with the Board. Charles Holroyd, an Executive Director, is responsible for formulating the Group’s H&S strategy and objectives, reviewing performance against these objectives and for ensuring that key H&S issues are effectively identified and managed. The Board reviews the H&S performance of the Group’s operations at each meeting. All Group businesses regularly report progress on H&S issues to the Group Health, Safety and Environment Manager who is responsible for keeping Charles Holroyd, and consequently the Board, informed of serious issues. The Group Health, Safety and Environment Manager is responsible for auditing each site annually. Key H&S risks within the business are subjected to a more focused review by the Board. Current risks receiving closer attention are those involved with driving for work, new production processes and the management of radiation issues in those businesses providing X-ray products. Two of the Group’s major sites are certified to the OHSAS18001 Health and Safety Management System standard. Employees are kept informed of current H&S issues through information provided by local H&S committees. Members include staff from all areas of the business and meet on a regular basis. In addition, information on health and safety matters is published on the Group intranet, notice boards and in monthly cascades and quarterly business reports. Employees are actively encouraged to suggest improvements that can be made in working conditions and practices. Employees The Board recognises that the Group’s employees are critical to the overall delivery of its business strategy. It acknowledges that the Group’s business success is delivered through the commitment, skills, experience and passion of its employees. Relations with employees are based on respect and collaboration. The Group is committed to a working environment where there is mutual trust and where everyone is accountable for their own actions and share responsibility for the performance and reputation of the Group. The Group HR Director reports directly to the Board on all employee related issues. The Group’s aim is to ensure there are equal opportunities for all employees with no discrimination on account of gender, marital status, family responsibilities, sexual orientation or preference, colour, race, nationality, religious belief, ethnic origin, disability, age and unrelated or spent criminal convictions. Ability and contribution are the determining factors in the selection, training, career development and promotion of all employees. The success of Oxford Instruments is dependent upon the skills and abilities of its people, and all employees are encouraged to realise their potential. Training, development and career planning needs are regularly reviewed, and both the technical and interpersonal skills that sustain the economic success of the business are actively developed. This year, management development programmes have been extended to include modules focusing on management of results, people and self. These programmes are offered to all managers across the business. All employees are kept informed of progress against the Group’s strategic plan through regular video presentations on the intranet and face-to-face meetings with the Chief Executive, monthly team meetings, the Company intranet and newsletters. In addition, the performance of individual business groups is communicated through cascades and team meetings. The Group conducts regular all-employee surveys on issues such as management team effectiveness, communication of business strategy, working conditions and overall employee engagement. Specific action plans are in place across the Group to address key areas. It is the Group’s policy to provide competitive remuneration referenced against external market data.
