Health and Safety at Work

Why is it important?

At ASC Edinburgh Ltd, we believe it is vitally important to keep our health and safety policy up to scratch. That is why we ensure we stay ISO 45001 Compliant. We strive to continuously demonstrate our commitment to ensuring health and safety standards are upheld. This includes our clients, our employees and anyone else who may be affected by the work we carry out.

How do we achieve that?

We recognise that the anchor point of such a system is the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) policy. Therefore, we ensure that in all the work we do, the HSE policy is used effectively. Whenever you work with ASC, you will receive safe scaffolding with people’s welfare at the forefront.

What are the results?

Our ongoing company health and safety training matrix reinforces our excellent, robust health and safety policies. We have structured this training to ensure that every team member reaches the highest standard of training and experience. We do this so that safety standards are implemented to best industry practice instead of required minimum standards.

Contribution of our scaffolders.

Each member of our management and workforce at ASC Edinburgh Ltd receives extensive training in health and safety. We also urge our scaffolders to report any potentially uncontrolled hazards, unsafe acts, unsafe conditions or non-compliance. Thanks to the active engagement from all our staff, we have a high standard of safety in the workplace.
