Public Sector/NHS

The public sector covers a vast range of organisations including:

•       
• National Government Departments
• Local Authorities
• NHS Trusts and Hospitals
• MOD
• Prisons

Many of these organisations have building, construction or maintenance work carried out which involves Working at Height which needs careful consideration when carried out in areas where members of the public are present in high number. As part of these operations organisations often have scaffolding erected on site by contractors, we can provide Scaffolding Safety support that includes scaffolding inspections, scaffolding specification development advice of scaffolding contracts.

We are also able to offer Work at Height training for organisations own staff which includes work at height awareness, lightweight tower scaffolding, ladders and step ladders; all such use of this equipment should only be allowed if your staff are adequately trained as required by safety Regulations.

In addition we can provide a Supply Chain Management service to assist you in development of long term partnering relationships with your key suppliers and sub-contractors ensuring compliance with competence and capability requirements along with cost savings that come with mutually beneficial relationships.

Managing Corporate Risk is an important area for these organisations that are dealing with supplying services to the public with public money.

We also have specialists that provide services to the Healthcare Sector and provide Dangerous Goods Safety Advisory Service along with a Waste Management service that works very closely with a number of NHS trusts.
