Safety

At Brown & Carroll, we put the health, safety and welfare of our people, contractors and visitors first.

Over the years, we have fostered a culture of safe working practices, whether at our premises or onsite. We have an in-house Health & Safety team, allowing us to be proactive when it comes to the specific health and safety challenges of each of the projects we work on.

Taking responsibility for health & safety

While we have worked hard to foster a safe working culture across our operations, we know that ultimate responsibility for health, safety and wellbeing lies with our leadership team. That’s why our directors take time to listen to all Brown & Carroll managers, employees and contractors to help inform their health and safety decision making.

Training and procedures

We offer all members of staff a range of training opportunities and follow strict procedures. This ensures that we comply with the latest health and safety requirements in our factory and on all our projects, as well as maintaining industry-wide standards.

We train managers on all of our projects to SMSTS and SSSTS levels.

All employees hold the required CSCS card.

Through 'tool box talks', employees on every project receive training in fundamental health and safety requirements.

As part of our Integrated Management System (accredited to ISO 45001: 2018, ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015), we ensure that all procedures implemented across the company take health and safety requirements into account.

On-site safety

Each project we undertake has unique challenges. Ever-changing site conditions mean we need to be proactive in maintaining optimal on-site safety. We do this by creating and adhering to tailored method statements and risk assessments for each task we undertake on-site. Our exceptional health and safety performance marks us out as industry trailblazers. 



To ensure all of our training is followed, our in-house Health and Safety team undertakes weekly random inspections of our projects and produces detailed reports. This rigorous approach has helped us to win multiple awards and become a truly trusted contractor across the whole of our principal contractor base.
