Health & Safety Management

At the DES Group Ltd, we fully recognise the significant hazards and risk associated with our work activities and the challenging environments in which those work activities are carried out. Our health and safety management systems are structured to ensure that a thorough assessment is made of all reasonably foreseeable risk to our own employees, the Client’s employees and those working around us.

With the commitment and leadership of Company’s Board of Directors and a fully engaged workforce, effective risk management remains a key business objective. DES has a proven record of implementing robust risk control measures on their sites, resulting in a favourable record of achievement that has been maintained year on year.

DES has developed a Health & Safety Management – Policy Manual which is regularly reviewed in order to accurately reflect the Company’s business operations and structure in line with our statutory duty under health and safety Law.

Key elements of the DES Group health and safety management system include:

Employing a fulltime qualified professional in the role of Group Health & Safety Manager
Establishing clear aims and objectives in achieving high Company standards and those set by our Clients
A Structured process for engaging with all members of the workforce
A commitment to targeting specific training needs, and providing the necessary training at all levels
An open and transparent process for reporting unsafe conditions
Thorough procedures for investigating accidents and incidents
Procedures for carrying out internal and external auditing

To bolster the competence of our site based operatives, we are proactive in registering our employees with the following recognised card / training schemes:

CITB – Site Safety Plus (e.g SMSTS and SSSTS certificate)
