Throughout, safety remains an unwavering priority. For all construction professionals, ensuring a secure and hazard-free construction site is not only a legal obligation but a moral responsibility. So why does certified training matter?
There is a reason why Oxford Safety Components company mantra, acts as a promise to our customer base, for every project site and for every customer. It shapes us as a business and it sets us apart:
We don’t compromise. We offer full and in-depth training on all our products prior to use, ensuring all your workers are competent in their safe use and installation.
We know that sets us apart from the competition because you tell us. When asking a new customer what made us different from the other solutions on the market they told us:
“The term ‘trained’ was quite loose for your competitor, for my ground workers they suggested that if we hire the kit and let him know when we’re starting the first plot he’d come along and give us a “few pointers” and then we’d be fine to erect, dismantle, move, etc without the need for the formal training day. That set off alarm bells for me”.
SAVE LIVES – the safety solutions from Oxford Safety Components all do that for sure.
