Leading the Way In Health and Safety Excellence
Our dedication to health and safety is ingrained in every aspect of our operations. Here’s how we ensure the utmost safety for our team and partners:
Our strong safety culture, combined with dedicated team training, ensures that every member is equipped to uphold safety standards after all our people are our biggest asset. Compliance with legislation is important, but we strive to go beyond and our directors Clayton and Blake, foster this commitment within the team. We have established robust and effective processes supported by policies that consistently identify and address risks, ensuring a safe and secure work environment for all.
We know we are on the right track but there are ALWAYS ways to improve. We conduct regular internal site audits and participate in external audits and pre-qualifications to ensure the direction is continuous improvement for the safety and wellbeing of our team.
