Since the first iteration of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations in 1994, there has been a very clear focus covering all manner of construction work in terms of designing and delivering projects safely.

While the immediate safety of all workers has always been at the forefront of these regulations, there is an increasing focus on occupational health and wellbeing given the very significant long term impacts of musculoskeletal injuries, occupational illness and now including the broader mental health and wellbeing concerns that are manifesting themselves within the construction industry. We’ve outlined just a few below. Continue reading…

Friday was our Charity Fundraising Event for The Lighthouse Club and it was so much fun, even if it was slightly cold ❄️

The dogs enjoyed their 4 mile walk and were rewarded with a few chips at the pier to celebrate! Whilst we were walking, we were receiving donations from people on the pier and through our Just Giving page and we are incredibly pleased to say we raised £475.70!

That is an incredible amount, and we can’t thank you enough 💙

Swipe through the pictures to see how much fun we got up to!

Tomorrow is the day! 🐕‍🦺🎄

The team are getting their winter jackets out and preparing the dogs for the 4 mile walk to raise money for The Lighthouse Charity.

We’d like to thank everyone that has donated so far, we have already raised an incredible £365 of our £400 target! Thank you all 👏🏻

If you’d like to join us tomorrow, we’ll be starting our journey outside the Toby Carvery in Clacton at 1pm ❄️

Stay tuned for more updates as we walk!

Everyday can be different as a Consultant, from visiting construction site and delivering inspections, completing company audits and writing risk assessments or traffic management plans.

Reece Laffar recently sat his CITB SMSTS Refresher course courtesy of our C&C Training, to keep up to date with competencies and maintain good Health & Safety knowledge for all his lovely clients.

Calum Cunningham has been a busy bee this October! 🏗️

He has been visiting new build high-rise construction sites, large earth movement projects and internal auditing manufacturing factories. Completely different environments with some very different hazards to control.

But ultimately the end goal is the same; to ensure that you, our clients, are compliant with specific industry requirements and business compliance. This way we can ensure your employees and others are protected, as far as is reasonably practical, without harm to their Health & Safety.

Throw into the mix a two-week NEBOSH course as part of Calum’s CPD training and the man never stops! Never stop learning, never stop growing!
