Health & Safety
A responsible approach to health, safety and welfare issues is key to ensuring that all activities under our control are carried out in accordance with regulatory requirements and safe working procedures, and in regulatory compliance with statutory provisions.
Bulb employ a team of independent auditors that undertake laboratory safety audits on our sites and provide training to staff and site operatives.
Any client has a responsibility under CDM regulations to appoint a specialist who is competent to comply with health and safety requirements. Most client duties require action well before construction starts on site. As an accredited Safe Contractor, Bulb can aid clients in identifying hazards, creating a plan to organise and control health and safety matters throughout the lifetime of a project.
Our Accreditations
The Bulb team are knowledgeable in CDM & COSHH regulations, BSI/EN recommendations, the Health & Safety at Work Act and IOSH accredited Laboratory Safety, with impressive accreditations.
