Health and safety is a crucial part of Solinear’s day-to-day activities.
We are committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for our employees, clients, contractors, suppliers and members of the public, ensuring that every Solinear project is delivered to the highest standards of safety and compliance.
To support this commitment, Solinear retains the professional services of The Safety Consultants, who provide expert advice and guidance regarding every aspect of health and safety across our operations. Their expert knowledge helps to ensure that our policies, procedures and working practices remain aligned with current legislation, industry best practice and evolving regulatory requirements.
Our health & safety advisors can also be contacted through Solinear to discuss project-specific requirements and provide guidance where required.
Health and safety is embedded throughout every stage of the business, from initial site visits and design and manufacture to transportation, delivery and installation on site. Comprehensive risk assessments, method statements, regular audits, ongoing staff training and continual review of Solinear management systems help ensure that risks are identified, managed and reduced before work begins and throughout the lifecycle of every project.
Mitigating Risk
Careful planning is paramount to the safe delivery of each Solinear project.
Before manufacturing begins or work commences on site, comprehensive risk assessments are undertaken to identify any potential hazards and determine the most effective control measures.
Our highly-experienced team develops and implements safe systems of work that reflect the specific requirements of each project, helping to protect Solinear employees, contractors, clients and members of the public. These procedures are regularly reviewed and updated to ensure they remain effective and comply with current legislation and industry best practice.
By proactively identifying risks and promoting a culture of safety, Solinear is committed to delivering high-quality architectural façade, solar shading, ventilation and acoustic louvre solutions safely, responsibly and professionally.
