Health, Safety and Environment

One of the most important aspects of any kind of scaffolding erection is health and safety. Your team, our team and the general public all put their lives in the hands of scaffolds every day working on them or walking by them, a poorly designed or constructed scaffold can easily lead to falling objects, people and even entire buildings so it’s an area we take really seriously.

We operate a tight health and safety policy including:

  • Fully Integrated Management Systems
  • All systems operate in accordance with ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015
    & OSHAS 18001:2007 accreditation
  • Fully competent workforce
  • Documents/procedures/Work Instructions are regularly reviewed and controlled
  • Continually seeking evolution and improvement
  • Time planning to avoid construction during busy periods
  • Avoidance of power lines
  • British Standards equipment
  • Safety barriers at all heights

​​Our team carry out a full survey before starting planning or erection to find workarounds for any potential problems like power lines and level, firm foundations. We take into account essential concerns such as ladders, load weights and supports throughout the design and ensure that our erection teams are fully conversant with the latest health and safety legislation so that good practice and compliance can be attended to throughout the build.
