Health & Safety
PTC has always had an excellent health and safety record, with incident rates way below the national average for this industry, and we will continue to invest a great deal of time and effort in ensuring that our sites are safe places to work.
Our Health & Safety policy is the keystone to influencing site activities, management decisions, our selection of materials, resources and the operation of safe systems of work. Effective company communication and the importance placed on competence and attendance of relevant training enable all employees to contribute to the overall effort and result.
The use of our Health & Safety Policy & Procedures Manual ensures exceptional performance in health & safety, fulfilling both the spirit and the letter of the law. The implementation of our competency matrix and annual training plan has helped us achieve a skilled, safety conscious workforce capable of contributing to the overall goal of reduction in lost time injuries.
Our achievement of zero reportable incidents for the last two years, demonstrates the effectiveness of our current Policy and Procedures and we will work hard with our employees to ensure we continue this trend.
We are accredited within the Contractors Health and Safety Scheme (CHAS) and are members of RoSPA and the British Safety Council, having won safety awards every year that we have entered since 1997. Our most recent award is a Certificate of Compliance under the Considerate Constructors Scheme.
