CORPORATE HEALTH, SAFETY & ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY

Health and Safety, Our Top Priority!

Mountain West Services (MWS) Management is committed to conducting its operations in a safe and environmentally responsible manner.

MWS will maintain a health and safety program conforming to industry best practices and will comply with the intent and specific requirements of all health and safety legislation.

The prevention of occupationally induced injuries and illnesses will be given priority over operations productivity. MWS will not knowingly place personnel or the public at risk and will not support any decision that compromises safety for the sake of any other business objective.

All MWS personnel (managers, supervisors, workers and contractors) have the right to work in a safe and healthy environment. As such they will be equally responsible and accountable for the company's overall health and safety initiatives. Injury and illness prevention requires the right attitude and commitment.

Only through such a cooperative effort can an effective safety program for everyone be established and preserved in their best interests.
