Putting health and safety first

The management of A. C. Bacon Engineering Ltd take the health & safety of its employees, sub-contractors and members of the public very seriously at our offices, workshops and on site.

We have a Health & Safety policy which is issued to all employees together with Risk Assessments and COSHH Assessments.

Erection Method Statements are formulated for each contract and site.

 

The safety toolkit

The following tools are specifically chosen to suit the requirements of each contract:

  • Mobile cranes
  • Access equipment
  • Guard rails
  • Safety nets
  • Scissor lifts
  • Telescopic handlers

Our policy is to invest in the modern plant and equipment needed on our sites.

Health & Safety accreditations

As audited members of BCSA (British Constructional Steelwork Association), RIDBA (Rural & Industrial Design & Building Association) and CONSTRUCTIONLINE, as well as consultations with external health & safety experts, our Health & Safety Officer is kept up to date with the necessary information required.

Our employees receive regular training to keep them up to date with both the tasks they perform and the specialised machinery they operate.
