We work at the centre of people’s lives, in and around their homes and neighbourhoods, either with utility supplies or public services. This makes the health and safety of our employees and the general public of paramount importance.
Our health and safety systems and policies are rigorous, thorough and proven. We have an outstanding record that has been recognised by RoSPA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents) for eight consecutive years. Many of our operations have also won consecutive contractors awards where health and safety is an important aspect.
Placing the highest premium on health and safety, we ensure regular, comprehensive training tailored to specific jobs that meet industry requirements. We also encourage personal ownership of health and safety.
Our TargetZero initiative was launched with the belief that all accidents and incidents can be prevented and it reflects our commitment to health and safety. We have had continued success in the reduction of accidents by adopting this proactive approach, which has been recognised once again by RoSPA with a Gold Medal Award win in 2008.
