Health and Safety
Health and Safety is always a priority within our organisation and runs hand in hand with our continuous training regime. We are constantly developing our work ethos to reduce risk and eliminate accidents.
Since joining the H.V.C.A some twenty years ago, our policies and methods of work are constantly monitored both internally and audited by BM Trada, these policies and work practices are then updated on a regular basis and if needed, re-issued to our personnel.
M. J. Mayers has a Nebosh certificate and therefore takes care of the day to day management of our health and safety, and co-ordinates policy, action and legislation requirements.
The staff receives regular training and all have relevant CSCS cards, this has been recognised by the award of a platinum certificate to Pursey and Ball in recognition of our continued commitment to the scheme.
All our site foremen are very experienced and each holds a construction site Supervisors Safety Certificate in accordance with the UK Contractors Associate requirements.
First aid training has been given to the majority of our staff with some 95% holding an appointed persons certificate.
