Our people share our purpose and vision for the future; to deliver a healthy and sustainable world in which we all live and work through our exceptional workplace services and consultancy, communications and scientific research.
We have been at the forefront of occupational health research since 1969, to understand and remove a range of health risks. These include noise, chemicals, asbestos, heat, dust or vibration and emerging risks from new technologies such as nanomaterials. We are uniquely placed to practically apply our research findings and deliver services to businesses that help manage hazards in the workplace.
Our vision is to be a globally recognised organisation that engages, excites and empowers our staff, to deliver our mission of a healthy and sustainable world in which we all live and work.
Our values of independence, impartiality, integrity, quality and sustainability underpin both our work and also the confidence that our clients place in the answers we give.
Our work gives the best scientific and evidence-based opinion regardless of who pays and whether the results seem favourable or not.
