Full Circle Events & Exhibitions says more than 90% of its onsite operations team has completed IOSH Managing Safely certification.
The achievement comes as the business builds out dedicated health and safety leadership and works towards ISO 9001 accreditation. Twenty-eight members of the Full Circle and sister company PP Graphics show-site teams, around 20% of the wider workforce completed the training over the past three months, spanning electricians, event managers, project managers, site foremen and site managers.
The push follows the appointment of a new health and safety manager, as the business looks to formalise standards across build environments it describes as fast-paced, with tight deadlines and multiple contractors working side by side.
Peter Webb, head of operations at Full Circle Events & Exhibitions, said: “Health and safety has always been a priority for us, particularly with our teams working across so many different venues and build environments. Having over 90% of our onsite Operations team complete IOSH Managing Safely is a fantastic achievement and something we’re really proud of.
“What’s particularly important is that we’ve invested in training across a variety of roles, from our electricians and site teams through to our event and project managers. With the appointment of our new Health & Safety Manager and our wider ambitions around ISO accreditation, we’re continuing to invest in our people and processes to strengthen our standards even further.”
