“For me, health and safety isn’t about ticking boxes. After more than 30 years in this industry, I’ve learnt that safe sites are successful sites. That is why I never compromise on a few core principles. Putting the team first is the key to everything we do.”
That philosophy shapes every stage of our work. Each joinery project begins with our project managers creating their own RAMS (Risk Assessment Method Statement). By evaluating risks themselves, they gain a deep understanding of the job and plan accordingly. Each site has its own dedicated H&S file, and every team member signs up to the tasks they are carrying out in sequence, ensuring accountability and clarity.
Independent audits keep us sharp, but culture is that sets us apart. Steven instils the SKATE rule in everyone across our team:
SKATE ensures the right people with the right skills, experience and training are always in the right place. It creates a mindset where safety is seen not as a hurdle, but as the foundation of great work.
Alongside SKATE, Steven stands firmly by the 4P’s rule. By protecting our people and creating clear processes, we achieve stronger performance and sustainable profits. In other words, safety and success are inseparable.
Looking ahead, we know our projects will continue to grow in scale and ambition. Our commitment is that health and safety will always grow with them. By keeping our people safe, supported and empowered, we can take on bigger challenges with confidence. No shortcuts. No compromises. Health and safety will always remain at the very core of our growth and our future.
