Health & Safety for our
Temps & Contractors

Our commitment to your safety

Safety comes first for all those who engage with GBL, and we are dedicated to providing a safe working environment for all of our temporary candidates and contractors. Whilst you are on assignment through GBL, your safety and well-being is a shared responsibility between GBL as your employer, the client where you are assigned, and yourself.

GBL’s health & safety promise

  • Workplace Health & Safety - We make sure that all our employees are placed in safe environments by visiting our clients before and during assignments, and completing a health and safety checklist with them on a regular basis.
  • Timesheets – Your health and safety status is a mandatory feature on our timesheets. This is to ensure inductions are competed in the first week of your assignment, as well as providing us with a weekly update. Any issues are automatically emailed to your GBL consultant – and we will be in contact promptly.
  • Health & Safety Reporting – We document and closely monitor all accidents, incidents, injuries or near-misses, and your GBL consultant will guide you through the process.
  • Advice and Support – If you are unsure about a situation, please contact your GBL consultant immediately – we will be able to assist with workstation assessments, ergonomic equipment or advice.
