Corporate Social Responsibility & Training

Business in the Community “Community Mark” awarded in 2008 following our work and commitment to the following projects.

• Breaking the Mould This was a pilot scheme involving 2 intakes of 6 long term unemployed women from the Raploch area of Stirling who undertook NVQ level 1 courses in Construction Skills at Clackmannan college in Alloa. Our involvement was to provide suitable construction employers to provide initial work shadowing opportunities on a part time basis during their study period of 16 weeks and then sustainable employment on completion of the college courses.

• The Bridges Programme Our involvement with the Bridges Programme has been a long term working relationship to highlight the employability of Asylum Seekers and Refugees within the Scottish Construction Industry. We have worked closely with this Charity in providing “Equipped for the Future” training as well as finding placements for their members.

Temporary Workforce

We have a training schedule in place for all Temporary Workers to ensure they are achieving minimum safety standards in line with their CPD. Since 2005 we have supported over 200 temps to achieve CITB Site Safety Management and made contributions to CSCS Cards which increases chances of securing work in a very competitive sector.
