Safety, Health & Wellbeing and Environment (SHE)
Safety, Health & Wellbeing and Environment is critical to all and a clear priority for us. We recognise the
necessity of safeguarding the physical and mental health and safety of our own people while at work. We
work hard to provide a safe and comfortable working environment for staff members, visitors, and the
public. Our policy requires the business to manage their activities in a way that avoids causing unnecessary
or unacceptable risks to health and safety.
Every month we hold a SHE committee meeting, which includes representatives from operations and
administrative areas in addition to the management team, including the board of directors. The committee
is chaired by the dedicated health and safety manager and environmental representative to ensure all
issues are raised and appropriately actioned, with feedback and minutes posted on all bulletin boards.
Health support is provided by a local occupational health provider, and we provide an Employee Assistance
Programme (EAP). Regular training is carried out for first aid, fire marshals, environmental spillages, forklift
truck operators, those working at height, and we have a large 8tool box talk9 library for all teams to include
in their regular team briefings.
Wellbeing
The Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) is a benefit designed to help people deal with personal or
professional challenges that could be affecting their home or work life, their health or general wellbeing.
This is in addition to the regular wellbeing training for all members of staff and managers.
The programme provides a complete support network that offers expert advice and compassionate
guidance 24/7, covering a wide range of issues. Proactive and preventative support to deliver the best
possible outcome to life challenges, with immediate support available without delay, when someone needs
it most.
