A HOUSING development on the edge of York has been commended for its health and safety record.
David Wilson Homes’ The Tannery site in Strensall, was praised at the NHBC Health and Safety Awards - the UK’s only health and safety awards scheme exclusively for homebuilders, this month.
It was judged through three inspections which looked at scaffolding, welfare facilities, and communication, and is now in the top 15 for the large builder category.
Site manager Jo Hopkins said: “We take the health and safety of our staff very seriously and we are very proud of the commendation as it recognises all of the hard work put in by the team.”
