What they do:
Coventry scaffolding is one of the most established scaffolding firms in the UK. Having built its reputation by serving London’s building contractors for 70 years, Coventry has also gained the official seal of approval by Her Majesty The Queen.
What they achieved: FORS Safe Urban Driving, FORS Bronze, FORS Silver
Coventry is one of the most prestigious scaffolding companies in the UK. JCS is extremely honoured to have been selected to take the team through their training and FORS pre-audits, helping them to achieve FORS Bronze and Silver accreditations.
The construction industry is a competitive space, so it’s important Coventry remain as leaders in the industry, both operationally and financially. JCS has guided them through their compliance journey, ensuring all drivers are fully trained in road safety around London (via the FORS safe urban driving course), and also running as efficiently as possible.
The FORS Bronze standard is primarily focused on health and safety of both your drivers and vehicles, as well as awareness about operating with minimal environmental impact. Leading on from there, FORS Silver explores fleet efficiency, vehicle safety, and road efficiency in greater detail. A key focus for Coventry was road safety. Trucks and vans are more likely to be involved in fatal or serious injury incidents with pedestrians and cyclists than any other vehicle.
The FORS standard has enabled Coventry to minimise risk while operating in one of the busiest cities in the world.
