INNOVATION
On making deliveries we can provide a vehicle with a hiab which will be able to off load without onsite vehicle assistance being required, this also give us the opportunity to collect the empty drums (which will be reused/recycled) this will reduce the vehicle movements on site and on the public roads.
Recently the government have put a big push on electric vehicles, with this in mind, Batt Cables are happy to announce that the majority on the sales fleet vehicles are now electric / Hybrid, with the remaining on order to be changed. We are have just received within our transport fleet shipment of Full Electric Sprinter Vans and looking to the same with the remaining fleet within the near future where viably.

HEALTH & SAFETY
Employees will be suitably trained to perform the tasks that they are likely to undertake, to recognise potential risks in the work situation, and not to be asked to perform any task that is likely to risk their health. We are also committed to ensuring our workforce and consulted on H&S matters, and encourage worker participation in the consultation process.
Established Since 1952
The company is bound by law to conduct workplace risk assessments, and we will take all steps to eliminate hazards and reduce OH&S risks where it is reasonably practicable to do so.
The responsibility placed upon me is filtered down through the management, operations and administrative staff who report to me. As part of their duties, they must ensure that health and safety in the workplace is kept under effective control, and that the performance of those reporting to them is monitored.
As senior management of Batt Cables Plc I have considerable responsibility to ensure that the company requirements concerning health and safety at work are properly understood and are adhered to constantly. However, these requirements can only be regarded as a foundation stone, as it is my belief that health and safety rank equally with all other company objectives.
We are committed to providing safe and healthy work conditions for the prevention of work related injury and ill health and are committed to fulfilling our legal and other applicable requirements, to which we subscribe. We must all take reasonable care for our own health and safety, and that of others who may be affected by what we do or omit to do. As employees within our organisation, it is up to each one of us to ensure that whatever we do it is safe for other persons who may enter out sites, as well as being safe for ourselves.
