The saying goes “… somewhere out there, there’s a bullet with your name on it.”
As part of continual efforts to improve health and safety throughout our civil engineering activities, the management team at J K Guest has recently developed the Safety Bullet.
The Safety Bullet concept involves the issue to all company employees, a heavy impact resistant USB flash drive for the storage of work related training qualifications and certification. These details can be easily viewed by site management teams, ensuring that all J K Guest site operatives are competent and qualified for the work tasks to be undertaken.
We feel this is such an important and practical safety initiative that it has been incorporated into our 2010 Health and Safety Policy procedures.
