Hunter believe the Health & Safety of all persons is of paramount importance, it is our number one priority. Hunters adopt a consistent and rigorous approach to health and safety to progressively improve the health and safety of our employees and assist those who work on our sites and ensure the health and safety of others is not adversely affected by our actions or inactions. This approach is translated across to a number of different subcontractors and specialist suppliers. Our subcontractor approval and scoring process identifies those with appropriate experience and credentials ensuring a comprehensive and aligned approach which our safety record confirms.
Our Health & Safety Policy has been developed taking into account the level of risks reflective of our business needs, and we have developed a management system detailed enough to provide guidance yet be flexible enough to allow change & improvements to be made across our business.
We have developed a robust policy that we successfully implement to provide continual improvement.

Hunters are committed to incorporating sustainability and reducing the environmental impact of our business. We believe that best environmental practice is essential to good business management.
It has now become widely recognised that the earth has limited raw materials and their extraction and use should be minimised wherever practicable. All waste has an effect on the environment,
Waste is defined by the Environmental Protection Act 1990 as: -
any substance which constitutes scrap material or effluent or otherwise, any unwanted surplus arising from the application of any process:
any substance or article which requires to be disposed of as being broken, worn out, contaminated or otherwise spoiled.
Waste anywhere within an organisation is a drain on company resources; as it is a symptom of over purchasing, incorrect use, insufficient use, unsuitable plant / machinery and inadequate controls. Therefore, it is a financial loss to the company in the original purchase; an additional cost to control and dispose of the waste, and the potential environmental impact on disposal.
As part of the initial management processes, Hunters Project Management team will determine waste management controls, logistics, identify the licensed carriers to be utilised and determine site responsibilities for waste management measures and reporting.
Our aim is to reduce waste by the application of changes in design, controls, procedures, instruction, training and technical solutions in the delivery of works, to reduce waste to the lowest level practicable.
What defines Hunters as an organisation is the people who work for us. All employees are valued and work in partnership. This enables us to influence the evolution of the workplace and to meeting and exceeding the expectations of others at work. All our employees are committed to life-long learning, and leading change within the industry. We aim to be an employer of choice, with rewards that will recognise and encourage achievement.
Our company is underpinned by our systems and processes that enable local decision making, and support best-practice management by the following five key elements:
