Health & Safety: Our Commitment To You, Our Suppliers & Our Team

Mechanical contracting and building services contain a lot of variables, which is why health and safety is front and centre of everything we do here at Callisia. Whether it is the safety and well-being of our engineers on site, or the long term safety of the people using the systems we design and install, we take our obligations to health and safety extremely seriously.
Each project is governed by detailed risk assessments that cover all aspects of health and safety, complying with and frequently going beyond the requirements of the CDM (Construction Design & Management Regulations 2015 – the primary health and safety regulations for the construction sector.

It is essential that all people involved with a project are singing from the same hymn sheet regarding health and safety, so safety concerns and risk awareness are included in all pre-project briefings and on-boarding preparations. As such, we apply the same standards of training and health and safety awareness to our own employees and to any third-party contractors we work with.
