We pride ourselves for our health and safety, so our Directors are always faced with an increasing struggle each year when choosing our Health and Safety Award winners.
Hosted by Managing Director Simon Carr, winners demonstrated consistently high health and safety audit scores, directors’ tours as well as general standards on site. The awards are made up of three categories: Civil Engineering Team of the Year, Building Team of the Year and Young Achiever of the Year.
