Maintaining health and safety within the demolition industry from Southampton, Portsmouth in Hampshire

HEALTH & SAFETY

Wessex Demolition's perception is that health & safety is of paramount importance, that is why we encourage a proactive approach towards not only the safety of our own workforce but also everyone who may be affected by the demolition. The management team of Wessex strive to implement a culture of care throughout the company and understand that leading by example is the most effective way of getting our workforce to follow suit. All of our employees are constantly informed and trained, giving them great knowledge in all aspects of the work they encounter.

All of our sites are monitored to ensure the high standards we set ourselves are maintained. Supervisors are fully qualified in first aid and are trained to SMSTS and CCDO site supervisor standards or are in training to reach this level. All operatives hold CCDO/CSCS or CPCS cards as a minimum requirement and hold the relevant certificates to operate any items of plant necessary on sites.

We encourage positive development at all levels of our business, regularly investing in our workforce and promoting from within.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

All employees of Wessex Demolition understand the responsibility we have to look after our environment. On site we endeavour to recycle as much waste as possible, with a minimum target to recycle 95% of the waste we produce. For each project our supervisor on site will work with our office team to record all the waste taken from site, which is then used to produce a waste management plan, showing what waste was produced and where it all went.
