In recent days/weeks Britain has experienced some of the worst cold weather in some 25 years! Unfortunately due to global warming, this unprecedented weather is likely to be a normality in future winters to come. As you are probably aware, rock salt and grit supplies have been few and far between and the little supply that has been available within the United Kingdom has gone directly to the councils which is understandable. The councils have specifically only targeted the roads and public services buildings. This has however left the over-whelming majority without rock salt/grit for their business. This in turn has resulted in other businesses surroundings not being gritted and more importantly are ‘unsafe’ which can lead to many problems for the business:
• Possible closure of business, which can/could result in loss revenue and targets not being achieved.
• Staff not being able to enter your premises and park their vehicles, loss productivity and in turn reduced service to customers.
• Customers not being able to enter your premises and park their vehicles.
• The potential for accidents to occur which can result in claims being made against the company.
As a company, ourselves included, we are duty bound and have a legal obligation to carry out all the necessary requirements available and have the contingency plans in place ensuring the safety and wellbeing of our employee’s, on-site contractors, visitors and customers. Even asking an employee to grit your premises outside of their contractual responsibilities, you are potentially placing yourself personally at risk of a direct claim or direct proceedings being issued should an incident or accident occur to them whilst carrying out these duties.
We at Absolute Services Wales as a division of what we offer is the supply of quality ultra grip rock/salt grit and it’s application. We have our own 7.5 tonne spreader for large areas, additionally we have trailed spreading machinery and implements. We work 24 hours a day/7 days a week (when the weather is bad!). We are professionally structured to tackle the snow and ice when it hits!
Gritting does not eliminate the risk but significantly reduces it and should an accident or incident occur, you can clearly highlight that you as a company took all the necessary steps as far and as reasonably practicable in the safeguarding of employees, visitors and customers.
We as a company only exclusively supply grit/rock salt and gritting application to those companies that have subscribed to our gritting service and have agreed to our contract terms. Therefore we stock the correct amount of rock salt/grit for our exclusive companies ensuring their business is not disturbed or interrupted due to the adverse weather conditions. We even supply/install and refill your grit boxes. You will never have to worry about your property surroundings and grit levels again.
