Health, Safety, Environment & Accessibility

At Allen’s Transport, we are committed to creating a safe, healthy, and accessible work environment for everyone—employees, contractors, customers, and suppliers alike. Our comprehensive Health, Safety, Environment Management System (HSE) is designed to proactively assess risks, identify and control workplace hazards, and promote safe practices across all operations.

We prevent workplace incidents by:

  • Prioritizing education, awareness, and proactive prevention;
  • Ensuring all employees and contractors are properly trained, experienced, and competent to perform their work safely;
  • Encouraging open communication about both safety successes and areas for improvement;
  • Maintaining a strictly enforced alcohol- and drug-free workplace;
  • Providing thorough emergency response training to all employees;
  • Collaborating closely with customers to maintain safe and inclusive work environments.

Accessibility is a core part of our safety strategy. We are committed to removing barriers—physical, technological, and systemic—that may impact participation or safety on our worksites.

Allen’s Transport has proudly held a Certificate of Recognition (COR) since 2004 and maintains qualified internal auditors to continually monitor and improve our programs. These efforts help us uphold the highest safety standards and drive continuous improvement.

Our goal is simple: a workplace free of incidents and injuries. If an incident does occur, we respond with immediate corrective action—applying elimination, engineering, and administrative controls to prevent recurrence.

At Allen’s Transport, safety and accessibility are non-negotiable. We expect everyone we work with to share in this commitment and uphold the same standards, every day.

    Emergency Response

    At Allen’s Transport we believe being prepared for an emergency is the best way to ensure that the repercussions from an incident are minimized. For that reason Allen’s Transport has developed an in-depth Emergency Response Plan. This ERP is tested through table top exercises and full scale mock disasters ensuring all employees are aware of their responsibilities, should an emergency situation occur. Our ERP is designed to protect firstly our employees, then the public, environment and lastly our equipment.
