Health and Safety

Our Health and Safety Department is responsible for ensuring the health, safety, and well-being of all staff and visitors, and for guaranteeing the company’s full compliance with current Health & Safety laws and Regulations. This involves disseminating all new or revised legislation to the relevant staff and management. Key functions include preparing and reviewing Risk Assessments and Safe Working Practices, along with creating and issuing Health and Safety Toolbox Talks, maintaining comprehensive delivery records. The department actively manages external safety concerns by communicating with suppliers and customers on H&S matters, and ensuring contractors work safely on site by reviewing their Risk Assessment & Method Statements (RAMS). Furthermore, the team conducts Incident and Accident investigations, liaises with the H.S.E. and other interested parties, and chairs Health and Safety Committee meetings. Finally, the department is vital for compliance assurance, answering customer questionnaires regarding product and company regulatory adherence, reviewing U.K. and European regulations to ensure product compliance, and communicating with suppliers on legislative matters, such as the use of restricted chemicals in materials.
