Phelan Construction is one of the latest group of successful companies to join a scheme designed to help industry improve its safety record.

The Essex based firm recently received accreditation from SAFEcontractor, a programme which recognises very high standards of health and safety practice amongst UK contractors.

Phelan Construction undertakes construction, refurbishment and fit-out projects for commercial clients of varying sizes from a wide range of business sectors including healthcare, leisure and hotels, local government, commercial, industrial and residential.

Director, Keiran O'Phelan, said: "We applied for the SAFEcontractor accreditation as we wanted to have a uniform standard across our business to protect our workers as well as to demonstrate to our clients how seriously we take the topic of health and safety. We underwent a stringent vetting process during which assessors examined both our procedures and our track record."
