Social Value

Corporate Social Responsibility Policy

Paul McGrogan Contracts Ltd is committed to operating sustainably by balancing the Company’s economic viability alongside its social and environmental responsibilities. Our respect for people encompasses treatment of our own employees, our interaction with the communities in which we operate and our management of the relationships within our supply chain. Equally fundamental is the care we take as a business to nurture and protect the natural environment through managing the environmental impact of our activities and implementing measures to minimise the effect of our day-to-day operations, such as the use of natural resources and management of waste. This policy is the direct responsibility of the Managing Director, and its success will be reported on annually.

People

The management of health and safety is a high-level commitment, fundamental to Paul McGrogan Contracts Ltd operations with priority being to protect all employees and anyone else that may be affected by our activities. A dedicated health and safety manager provides support and advice to management and the workforce. Training on health, safety and environment is provided for all employees and subcontractors. The success of our business is directly related to the continual investment we make in the development of our employees. We aim to do this through our supportive and comprehensive training programme that allows everyone to reach their full potential. The company embraces an annual appraisal scheme to review employees’ performance and identify aspirations, opportunities and training needs.

Communities

Paul McGrogan Contracts Ltd considers its role in local communities to be an integral part of the business, and we are proud of the communities we both live and work in. Delivering Social Value is a core value in everything that we do. As such, we actively seek to: employ local people and utilise local subcontractors and suppliers; become involved with local business, support local sports organisations and charities and events through financial support. Equally important is how our construction sites respond to the communities we interact with. We want to leave a lasting positive legacy in the communities in which we operate. We actively participate in formal Community Benefit schemes to the benefit of local people and businesses. We are also committed to ensuring any inconvenience to people who may be affected by our activities is minimised and to communicate with them at a local level.

Supply Chain

In managing our supply chain, we actively seek to build enduring relationships, and to create open and collaborative forms of working that deliver value for our clients and long-term opportunities for our business. It is always our intention to trade reasonably and in full cooperation with our subcontractors and suppliers. Our aim is to identify competent and like-minded organisations capable of fulfilling our expectations. Our commitments to health and safety, protection of the environment, quality and sustainable procurement are mandatory for all suppliers and subcontractors.
