Health, Safety and Wellbeing

Health, Safety, Quality & Environment (HSQE)


At Teamforce Labour Limited, health, safety, quality, and environmental responsibility are fundamental to how we operate. We are committed to providing a safe, compliant, and high-performing workforce across all client sites.

Our HSQE framework promotes safe behaviours, personal accountability, legal compliance, and continuous improvement across our operations and supply chain.

Safety is not just a priority — it is a core value.


Our Safety Culture


We actively promote a culture where every individual takes responsibility for their own safety and the safety of others.


Safe Behaviours


We expect all operatives, supervisors, and managers to demonstrate:

  • Personal accountability for safety
  • Compliance with site rules and Safe Systems of Work
  • Proper use of PPE at all times
  • Proactive hazard identification

Our message is clear:


“If you don’t think it’s safe, don’t do it.”

Work Safe Commitment


If a task cannot be carried out safely, it must not be started.

Operatives are empowered to:

  • Stop work if conditions are unsafe
  • Challenge unsafe instructions
  • Report concerns — even anonymously
  • Escalate issues directly to senior management

This commitment is embedded within our behavioural safety approach and reinforced through training and communication.


Maintaining a Safe Working Environment


Teamforce works closely with clients and site management teams to ensure:

  • Safe Systems of Work are understood and followed
  • Risks are identified through structured risk assessment
  • Incidents and near misses are reported and investigated
  • Corrective actions are implemented promptly
  • Lessons learned are shared

Our supervisors and site managers receive training in behavioural safety techniques to promote positive safety interventions and active engagement on site.


Communication & Reporting


Effective communication underpins our HSQE programme.


Internal Reporting Systems


Employees and operatives can raise concerns through:

  • Our WorkSafe reporting process
  • Confidential reporting via CIRAS
  • Direct access to senior managers (Open Door policy)

All reports are treated seriously and investigated appropriately. Feedback is provided where possible to ensure transparency and trust.


Recognition & Continuous Improvement


We encourage:

  • Recognition of safe practices
  • Reporting of unsafe behaviours
  • Suggestions for improvement

On client sites, the Yellow Card Award System addresses non-compliance with Safe Systems of Work and PPE requirements, reinforcing accountability while maintaining fairness.

We also provide feedback on safety performance and highlight improvements driven by operative suggestions.


Worker Welfare & Wellbeing


We recognise that safety includes mental health and wellbeing.

Our approach includes:

  • Clear grievance and disciplinary procedures
  • Confidential reporting mechanisms
  • Fair and transparent engagement practices
  • Compliance with Working Time Regulations to manage fatigue risks
  • Ongoing communication regarding worker rights and protections

Worker welfare forms part of our broader governance framework, as outlined in our Supply Chain Risk Management System .


Quality & Compliance


Quality and compliance are integral to HSQE.

We operate structured internal audit and monitoring processes covering:

  • Worker onboarding and right-to-work checks
  • Competency verification
  • Self-employment assessments (CIS)
  • Payroll and umbrella governance
  • Supply chain due diligence
  • Corporate Criminal Offence (CCO) compliance
  • Modern Slavery risk mitigation

These processes align with Workforce Assured audit requirements and ensure that all workers are engaged fairly, ethically, and legally.


Environmental Responsibility


We are committed to minimising environmental impact through:

  • Responsible resource management
  • Waste reduction practices
  • Compliance with environmental legislation
  • Supporting clients’ sustainability objectives

Environmental management forms part of our integrated management system.


ISO-Aligned Management System


Teamforce Labour Limited’s HSQE approach aligns with internationally recognised standards:

  • ISO 45001:2018 – Occupational Health & Safety
  • ISO 9001:2015 – Quality Management
  • ISO 14001:2015 – Environmental Management

Our proactive framework focuses on:

  • Hazard identification
  • Risk assessment and mitigation
  • Governance and accountability
  • Training and awareness
  • Monitoring and review
  • Continual improvement

Governance & Accountability


Senior management demonstrates top-level commitment to HSQE.

Directors oversee:

  • Risk control frameworks
  • Internal and supplier audits
  • Compliance monitoring
  • Policy reviews

Department heads are responsible for implementing and maintaining safe working practices across all operations and supply chains.


Our Commitment

  • A secure and compliant workforce

  • Protection of workers’ rights and well-being
