Site team achieve 'Excellent' score from Considerate Constructors Scheme

The site team at Goat Wharf received an impressive score of 41/45 for their first audit from the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS) after scoring high marks in each of the three categories.

On 18th July, a CCS monitor visited the scheme and carried out their audit of the site. They rated the scheme near top marks in each of the three available categories including respecting the community, caring for the environment and valuing their workforce. The auditor made several comments including: "Appropriate measures continue to reduce any inconvenience to residents to the minimum. Scheme requirements were well covered in the environmental and workforce sections."

The CCS is an independent organisation founded to raise standards in the construction industry to ensure all construction sites present an image of competent management, efficiency, awareness of environmental issues and above all neighbourliness. Monitors from the scheme regularly audit our sites to ensure we are adhering to the scheme’s Code of Considerate Practice which is designed to encourage best practice beyond statutory requirement.

Each audit is split into three categories; respect for the community, protecting the environment and valuing the workforce each with a potential top score of 15 with a total combined max score of 45 available. To score above 13 in any category warrants an excellent level of achievement for that category.

Congratulations to the site team, who work hard every day to maintain such high standards
