‘HSE’

It is impossible to emphasise enough the importance of this topic to those of us involved in the industry. We apply our best endeavours every day to protect those with whom we work and to maintain and improve our Health and Safety performance. Quite rightly our clients maintain this topic at the top of their pre-qualification criteria. We have been able to secure the services of the HSE to deliver, first hand, the situation regarding new and impending legislation, issues of concern, results of the recent  ‘purge’ on midlands construction sites and a general update on the industry’s H&S performance. Don’t miss this opportunity to speak to the HSE and discuss issues that may concern you!

Please do not miss this opportunity to network with industry and allied colleagues and also to listen to, and discuss, the issues that affect our industry on a local and national basis. HAWCE is for everyone in construction from the smallest SME’s to the largest contractors and clients and for all members of the professional team.
