Safety is a core value at Ponte Comm and our aim is that nobody gets injured as a result of our installations.

The key tool in maintaining this is our OHSAS 18001:1999 certification awarded in 2005.  This is an international specification defining a set of requirements for an Occupational Health & Safety Management System.

The elements of this are translated into procedures enabling us to measure progress, plan improvements and ensure accountability.  The key element of the system is to eliminate or minimise risk to employees and other interested parties who may be exposed to OH&S risks associated with our activities.

Our commitment to safety includes giving employees the appropriate equipment to do their jobs, developing procedures, training and policies that encourage and promote a safety culture.

We conduct regular internal and external assessments to ensure compliance and enable continuous improvement in all aspects of health & safety performance.  Our external auditors are SGS, the worlds leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company.

In 2006 Ponte Comm was awarded Environment, Health & Safety Contractor Accreditation status by Bovis Lend Lease.  One of the world's leading project management and construction companies, Bovis Lend Lease use industry best practices when working with clients to create high quality, sustainable property assets.

Our engineers are all Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) card holders.  The scheme is run by the Construction Industry Training Board with a view to improving the quality of workmanship and the standards of health and safety, and is fast becoming the industry standard.

 

Quality

Ponte Comm recognises customer satisfaction is of primary importance to its success.  We strive to understand our customer’s requirements and to merit their business by responding effectively to their needs.

Our ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System certification, originally obtained in 1997 enables us to demonstrate our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, as well as continuously improving our quality systems.

The key elements of our QMS are

• customer focus
• leadership
• involvement of people
• process approach
• system approach
• continual improvement
• fact-based decision making
• mutually beneficial supplier relationships

Regular internal and external assessments (by SGS) help us to continually use, monitor and improve our management system and processes.  This improves the reliability of our internal operations to meet customer requirements, as well as overall performance.

In 2006 Ponte Comm became an approved member of the Surrey Trading Standards "Buy With Confidence" scheme.  This was set up to provide consumers with a list of reputable businesses who they can use knowing that they are committed to high standards of trading and are prepared to comply with both the letter and the spirit of the law.
