Health And Safety Management System

Employees are actively encouraged to participate in the system through comment and observation reporting.
Site specific risk assessment and method statements are checked and updated as required prior to issue for all works; in addition, generic risk assessments for standardised activities are also used and are subject to annual review. Where required construction phase plans, quality plans and environmental plans can also be supplied thus ensuring that our clients and customers can be assured that all legal compliances are being met regardless of the size of the works.
