A Responsible Business

Corporate Responsibility

We want to be valued for the products we provide and trusted for the way we work, by exceeding expectations within our industry to demonstrate ethical business practices and high levels of integrity in everything we do. It is why health and safety, environmental protection, human rights, and business ethics are core to CBL’s approach to sustainability.

Our responsibility begins with our employees, we are committed to ensure that all staff are trained, engaged and motivated to work in a safe environment. We have established a structured approach to hazard identification and risk management contributing to a healthier and safer working environment, minimizing accidents and occupational heath problems. We operate to regulatory requirements through enforcing procedures for compliance with legislation.

All levels of the business are involved in the process of hazard identification and risk management, through the setting of objectives, targets and documented responsibilities. The visible way we let all stakeholders know we are dedicated to providing safe working conditions and continuous improvement is by certifying our Occupational Health and Safety management system to ISO 45001:2018.

At CBL not only are we committed to running an effective and efficient business safely, we also believe in respecting the communities in which we operate. We place particular emphasis on the care and protection of the environment and continuously improve our environmental performance and prevent pollution by:
