CHC supporting Stop. Make a Change

CHC have again signed up to the Stop. Make a Change #StopMakeAChange campaign. Running between 16th April and 27th April organisations from across the UK construction sector will take part in a Stop. Stand Up event with sites, offices and production facilities putting work on hold to focus on how we can work together to build a healthier, safer industry.

The Stop. Make a Change campaign for 2018 is focused on two key issues:

• Plant safety, movement
• Mental health

During the two week campaign:

• CHC will roll out the Company’s Thumbs Up campaign. This simple hand gesture gives operatives and plant operators a simple safe way to communicate.
• Provide focussed Tool Box Talks on Plant movement and Mental Health.
• Provide half day Banskman training to employees and subcontractors on active sites
• One day First Aid Mental Training will be offered to all employees

Dianne Tyrer, QESH Manager, commented “1 in 8 men in the UK have experienced mental health issues. So it’s really important that as a Company we focus on the health element of Health and Safety as well as the safety”
