Brogan Group celebrate 1.5M hours accident free

ADVERTISEMENT

The Brogan Group has achieved more than 1.5 million continuous hours accident-free across its powered access and scaffolding divisions, equivalent to 17 people’s entire working lifetimes.

FIVE HUNDRED Brogan site workers across the UK, Ireland and the Middle East, worked through the entirety of 2021 without a reportable incident, in an industry sector that is statistically four times as dangerous as the average workplace.

Brogan Group is an international group of access companies headquartered in the UK with offices in Ireland, Saudi Arabia & the UAE.

“This is the fourth time in the last decade that Brogan has completed an entire calendar year without a reportable incident. 2021 joins 2011, 2015 and 2016 in our record books,” says James Lewis, Group HSQE Director.

50% of the fatal incidents in the UK construction industry as a whole are from falls at height but Brogan Group, who largely work at height, have thankfully had no fatalities.

The firm’s All Accident Incidence Rate is on average 3x lower than the Industry NASC Scaffolding incident average.

James added: “These exceptional levels reflect our best practices and reinforce our ultimate aim of ensuring that our workforce is kept safe whilst working on our behalf and that they return home safely each day. We are keen to continue on such a positive note with the support of all of our workforce.”
