1,000 days free from accidents

Keeping Lost Time Accidents (LTA's) on a downward trend, Forticrete, one of the UK's leading manufacturers of concrete construction products, has announced that six of its seven UK manufacturing sites have now passed 1,000 days since their last registered accident.  

One of the six sites to have surpassed the 1,000 days 'milestone', Forticrete's Cebastone Works based in Ibstock, Leicestershire, has gone a remarkable six years without a single LTA.

Since the launch of its 'Raising the Bar' safety campaign in 2006, year on year, Forticrete has made significant strides to reduce the number of accidents on site and eliminate lost time accidents, ultimately improving the health, safety and welfare of its employees.

John Lambert, general manager at Forticrete commented:"Forticrete's commitment to the UK building industry goes far beyond the creation of the highest quality products. We have made significant strides to improve the health and safety of our employees at our sites, achieving some truly outstanding results that are testament to our commitment to ensuring a safe working environment for all."

All Forticrete manufacturing facilities are BSI registered and operate to the requirements of BS EN ISO 9001:2008 and BS EN ISO 14001:2004 - the national and international standards for quality and environmental management systems - and have gained the rating of "very good" for BES 6001 for all seven of our factories demonstrating responsible sourcing.
