Safe Consultants
We understand that safety in a utilities setting is of paramount importance. As a Company we have an excellent health and safety record and our Head of Rail, Road and Utilities, Edward Newman, sits on the ACE’s Health and Safety Working Group to ensure that we remain at the forefront of best practice. We are used to working in difficult areas; near high voltage lines, high pressure gas mains or water mains for example. Furthermore we have experience of conducting investigation in areas with high densities of services. Safety and safe systems of work are always our first consideration.
