It's part of our job to provide the safest possible working conditions, for our employees and for those we work with.
Our industrial health and safety culture makes every employee responsible for accident prevention. This approach works: in October 2009 we celebrated a year without any lost time injuries.
- Our robust management system details all QSHE procedures including PPE, medical testing, RAMS, and safe use of equipment. This is continually monitored and updated by our QSHE and internal audit teams
- We insist on a high standard of job-specific training for all employees, delivered by our own training college. This includes Behavioural Safety courses, which teach staff to recognise unsafe behaviour and stop it quickly
- All our projects are planned with meticulous care, in line with CDM and industry specific standards
- Our QSHE and internal audit teams make regular site visits and audits
- Our staff report incidents and near misses on-line with the RIVO system
- We invest in state-of-the-art equipment which makes our work safer
- We use ‘RAE’ (our Risk Assessment Expert), a crash test dummy animation to act as our standard bearer on Health & Safety issues, highlighting key issues across the business via posters & short films
All our sites are accredited to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 standards and we have won a number of health and safety awards for our thorough, proactive approach.
