We are an umbrella employer and service provider.

The prosperity of our business and of the communities within which we operate requires a commitment to the sustainable management of our activities.

We wish to adopt and commit to the principles and practices set out below.

We conduct regular fire alarm and fire drill tests and undertake regular reviews of fire apparatus and emergency equipment and procedures to ensure that those in place remain current and effective.

We have implemented an environmental policy appropriate to our business.
We are aware of our environmental impact as a business and have taken and continue to take appropriate steps to mitigate that impact, including use of recycling services, reducing our use of paper, using energy saving gadgets where appropriate and encouraging our staff to use public transport to travel to work or to work from home, when appropriate. We also implement procedures and provide training so employees and contractors understand their environmental responsibilities and can seek to improve our environmental performance. We require any cleaning fluids used within Our premises to be environmentally friendly and any waste to be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way.

We recognise and understand the significance of the local community within which we operate.
