Safety 

We take a proactive approach to health and safety, supported by the business and led by senior management.

• Accreditation & Awards: In 2019, we achieved accreditation under IS0 45001. In the same year we were awarded International Safety Awards for both Quintain and Quintain Living, by the British Safety Council, further demonstrating our dedication and commitment to high standards of health, safety and wellbeing.
• Construction Safety: As a client for so many different construction projects, we aim to provide a coherent approach to health and safety across our multiple sites.
• Operational Safety: Our operational responsibilities cover a wide variety of people and situations, from our own employees in our offices, to the residents and tenants of our assets.
• Performance Data: Over a 12-month period we capture statistics from our contractors related to both RIDDOR reportable and non-RIDDOR reportable accident and incidents. This data is shared periodically in reports to the Operational and Main Boards, as well as in our Annual Health and Safety Report.
