Health, Safety, Environment & Quality (HSEQ)
The Entier safety culture 'Safety, it’s in your hands' behavioural based system is fully embedded within the Entier business
Our passion for safety is paramount and safe working is a key driver for all employees as we aim to deliver incident free operations and service delivery to our clients and customers. We continually implement best practice to improve our safety performance.
We believe that our people are our greatest asset. Workforce involvement, personal responsibility for safety and strong leadership are key drivers for the business, and we take time to ensure our commitment to the Entier safety culture is communicated and understood by all.
Entier's Management System
The Entier Management System (EMS) has been developed since Entier started and covers all areas of the business. As Entier has kept growing, the EMS has been expanded to take into account all new or transformed business areas, and to ensure that staff members can work to a safe standard at all times.
Our teams are all taught the correct practices to use from our EMS, which contains forms that help our employees carry out their day-to-day jobs, including everything from temperature recording to maintenance to cleaning schedules and are made user-friendly so that everybody can do their jobs with ease.
Having everyone working to the standards set out in our EMS helps to develop our safety culture within our teams as well as our business as a whole. It also enables us to ensure that we meet the standards expected by our clients, uphold our various quality management and safety standards, and to keep people within our teams being catered for safely.
Besides keeping a strong focus on Health, Safety, Environment & Quality as well as the procedures and systems that help support it, we are also keen to 'give back' and make a positive impact on society. Find out more about Entier and Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) -
