Health & Safety
The diverse nature of scaffolding works requires a huge amount of care, consideration and commitment, which is why CAS employ our own full-time health and safety manager who monitors, updates and provides the training required to work in the safety-critical environments that we specialise in.
We strive to achieve excellence in Health & Safety performance. To this end, CAS has developed a Safety Management System based on continuous improvement to help create positive safety culture throughout the company.
All our Health & Safety procedures are monitored as required by being a proud member of the National Access and Scaffolding Confederation (NASC). This highlights to our clients CAS’s commitment to Health & Safety.
