Considerate Constructors Scheme
We are proud to be a Partner of the Considerate Constructors Scheme, after proving our commitment to improving the image of the construction industry by striving to promote and achieve best practice under the Scheme’s Code of Considerate Practice, which focuses on Care for the Environment, Respect the Community and Value the Workforce.
We:
- Voluntarily register all of our projects with the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS) and strictly adhere to its code of practice
- Are independently audited throughout the construction process and the scheme scores our sites’ performances
- Regularly monitor scores through KPIs within our Sustainability Strategy Community Pillar, and use auditors’ feedback to continually improve
- Are in the country’s top 10% due to our elevated standards
Respect the Community
Constructors must manage their impact on their neighbours and the public to support a positive experience, by:
- Ensuring courteous and respectful language and appropriate behaviour in and around the construction activity
- Providing a safer environment, preventing unnecessary disturbance, and reducing nuisance for the community from their activities
- Proactively maintaining effective engagement with the community to deliver meaningful positive impacts.
Care for the Environment
Constructors must minimise their impact and enhance the natural environment, by:
- Prioritising environmental issues to protect the natural environment and minimising negative impacts
- Optimising the use of resources, including minimising carbon throughout the value chain
- Engaging with the community to improve the local environment in a meaningful way.
Value the Workforce
Constructors must create a supportive, inclusive, and healthy workplace, by:
- Actively encouraging and supporting an inclusive and diverse workplace
- Proactively supporting safe working, mental and physical wellbeing at work
- Providing workplaces that are, well maintained, clean and secure from physical and biological hazards.
