We have found the advice from JDC invaluable in developing an appropriate system for our needs.

Robert Hill, Director, CO2 Control

"John Douglas Consultants have helped us enormously. We believed that we had an HSE policy and control procedures that served our business. They were tested under live fire on two of our sites last year. Our policy and procedures failed us. Without JDC we would not be here as a company today. At they time they were brought in to assist we were not a client. However, the lengths that they went to were so very much appreciated. To say that they went that extra mile is to understate it. We now have a working and logical policy and process that serves us, our clients and our sub-contractors. Safety and, of course concern for the environment, are now embedded and part of our everyday working lives. We recommend John Douglas Consulting Ltd unreservedly. They are the benchmark by which all other practitioners should be measured."
