Health & Safety and Training

Health & Safety

Health & safety is paramount on every job undertaken by the company with strong emphasis on pre-planning and management consultation to define and highlight potential hazards and risk related activities. Controlling methods and countermeasures are implemented to reduce and eliminate hazards and risks which ensure safe working practices throughout each stage of every contract, to fully comply with all aspects of the Health & Safety at Work Act. Detailed site specific method statements and risk assessments are produced to our clients on every contract undertaken. Regardless of whether the job is large or small our attention to detail is never compromised.

It is the policy of the Company to make Health & Safety its top priority in all its work activities. The Directors of the Company regard the promotion of Health & Safety procedures as foremost in the Company’s function at any level.

The management regularly attend safety requirement seminars and all our on-site workforce are C.I.T.B/CSCS & CCNSG (Scats) and SSSTS Registered and continually receive on-going Health & Safety awareness instruction. Members of Rafferty’s management team are also SMSTS qualified.
