Flannery heavily invests in skills and development across the workforce. From new operator training through to senior management training, we continually look to upskill our people to ensure they have the knowledge and skills to carry out their job safely and efficiently.
This message is led from the top down. The Flannery approach to training is driven by a company-wide ambition to be the best and lead the plant hire industry with its innovative approach and adoption of technology. Further to this a strong focus on upskilling our workforce drives the businesses claim to the best operators most equipped to deal with the demands of the modern construction site.
We are determined to ensure that we provide a safe, supportive and welcoming environment for our people and clients. We offer an environment free from discrimination, harassment and violence.
We recognise that the industry is facing significant skills shortages and it is paramount that we continue to widen the talent pool and attract and retain individuals from different backgrounds, ethnicities (BAME), genders, sexualities, cultures etc. In order to achieve diversity and equality, we have fostered a culture of inclusion, understanding and appreciation of differences.
Flannery recognises how desired people behaviours and attitude can contribute to ensuring an effective and safety focused project is delivered. As such, Flannery has implemented an in-house behavioural safety programme called ‘OperateSafe’.
Our aim is to ensure that our workforce put safety and well-being first and STOP any activity that could lead to harm to themselves or others. Above anything else, Flannery wants to ensure our workforce maintains a healthy and safe working environment and all can go home safely at the end of the day.
