Health and Safety

We all have greater responsibility to ensure safety of our staff as well as contractors on our own properties. Together over the years we have developed policy and systems with input from all staff to ensure we do everything practicable to keep ourselves and others safe. By engaging with Adgraphix you can rest assured that we take all practicable steps to ensure our production and installations are done safely and legally.

What do we do? Our installation team are SiteSafe passport certified. They have completed working at height EWP courses and have been trained for mobile scaffold use. We regularly engage traffic management companies to ensure we comply with legal requirements working by roadways. Site risk assessments are carried out for each install and appropriate steps taken to ensure safe work. Our work environment policy has been developed for worker safety though professional testing of noise and solvent exposure. We hold monthly meetings to review and improve existing and newly identified hazards and encourage discussion from the ground up. All this is managed using People Safe software to ensure regular maintenance and reviews of everything from gear, policies, plans and paperwork.
