As proud members of the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), we are committed to developing the next generation of scaffolders through our apprenticeship programme, ensuring a skilled and safety-conscious workforce for the future.
Every scaffold we erect is designed and installed in accordance with TG20:21 compliance guidance where applicable, or to bespoke engineered designs where required. We also operate fully in accordance with the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015).
Our comprehensive Health & Safety Policy is reviewed and updated annually, and we fully comply with the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013 (RIDDOR).
