Health, safety and environment
This is the one commitment with no trade-off attached to it. No programme date, cost saving or client request outranks the safety of the people working on a site.
Safety Is Not a Line Item Open to Negotiation
Every working site is a temporary environment with risks of its own. Our own teams and every contractor we work with are held to the same rules, the same training and the same authority to stop work — because falling behind a programme can be recovered from and someone being harmed cannot.
Our commitments
Everyone on Site, Same Standard
Our own teams and every contractor we work with operate under the same rules. A work package is not an exemption from the safety regime.
Trained Before Starting
Induction and task-specific training before work begins, with competence for high-risk activities verified rather than assumed.
Authority to Stop Work
Anyone on site may stop work they believe is unsafe, without needing to justify it first and without consequence for having done so.
Incidents Investigated, Not Filed
Incidents and near misses are recorded, traced back to root cause, and the finding changes the method. A report that changes nothing is not an investigation.
A site that is behind schedule is a problem. A site that is unsafe is not a problem to be balanced against it.
