Health & Safety



Redrow places great emphasis on the importance of Health and Safety and recognises that the wellbeing of all employees and those within the supply chain is essential to our business. We take appropriate actions to comply with Health and Safety best practice and legislation throughout our organisation.

As Principal Contractor there were no fatalities on our sites during the year (2007-08:nil), no prosecutions for Health and Safety issues (20007-08:nil), no Prohibition Notices (2007-08:nil) and no Improvement Notices (2007-08:nil). The number of injuries reported under the Reporting of Injuries Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations (RIDDOR) stood at 12 (2007-08:49) a reduction of 76% and the level of injuries requiring first aid reduced by 76% also.

Further information on Redrow’s performance and initiatives on Health and Safety can be found in the Health and Safety Annual Report published on our website.

If a site receives 4 stars or more for three consecutive inspections they are presented with a plaque to display on site. Refer to Redrow in Action 2 (Health & Safety – the Safe Six).
