Join Reece for another Day in the Life of a Consultant!

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.

Join Calum on another Day in the Life of a Consultant!

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!
