How do we build a culture of safety?

A positive safety culture is everyone’s responsibility. It isn't just dictated from the top down; it's an integral part of how every member of our team works. We empower our employees and subcontractors to proactively identify and address unsafe conditions, ensuring our high standards are maintained on every site. This approach is built on several key principles.

Management-led approach

Our senior management team sets the standard, making health, safety, and environment (HSE) a critical part of every planning decision.

Continuous development

We invest in an ongoing training programme to ensure all our operatives have the skills and competence to work safely and effectively.

Open communication

HSE is a standing agenda item in all management meetings and is discussed in monthly meetings with our site teams to share learnings and reinforce best practices.

Diligent site inspections

We conduct regular and thorough site inspections to verify that all safety procedures are being followed correctly.

How is our commitment to safety verified?

We operate according to the highest global industry standards. Our safety management systems in the UAE are modeled on the rigorous frameworks established by our UK operations, which maintain leading international accreditations including ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety), Safe Contractor, and CHAS (The Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme).

The safer alternative to excavation

Beyond our internal culture, the Geobear solution itself offers significant safety advantages over traditional construction methods:

  • No open excavations: We eliminate the risk of falls, trench collapse, and buried service strikes associated with digging.

  • Fewer people & plant: Our small teams and compact equipment mean less congestion and lower risk of vehicle-pedestrian conflict on your site.

  • Reduced exposure: Because we work up to 70% faster than traditional methods, the time our teams spend on your site (and the time your site is under repair) is drastically reduced.
