NEW HSSE MANAGER APPOINTED THROUGH INTERNAL PROMOTION

As the 3PL side of our business continues to flourish, there has also been a lot of work going on behind the scenes to build robust systems.

One area that has been of particular focus has been Health and Safety – the acquisition of new sites requires time and investment to bring them up to our standards – and this has been a great team effort.

Andrew Brownett joined the business in summer last year as HSSE & Compliance Technician and has recently been promoted to HSSE Manager, a role that is richly deserved. With a proven track record in Health and Safety and several professional qualifications in his field, Andrew has been instrumental in driving forward the visibility of Health and Safety in the business.

Lisa Tomlinson, Divisional Director, 3PL commented; “Andrew has had a great impact on the business building strong working relationships with all site managers and bringing them on the health and safety journey with us.

“Whilst several projects have been completed, his next focus is a continuous improvement of our H&S culture, auditing, and moving us to an online management system which will drive greater efficiencies.”

Since his appointment Andrew has completed several key projects including reviews of safe systems of work and risk assessments, accident investigation training, making H&S more visible across all our sites and improving our staff induction process.

“It’s been a great few months at Carlton Forest and I’m very pleased to have been promoted to my new role.,” said Andrew. “There is a great system in place, there to protect each other and any visitors to site, and I am looking forward to maintaining the high standards of health and safety that we have.”
