Provision for parking has been made within our compound (Lands off Dunningstown Road South adjacent to the new

HEALTH, SAFETY & ENVIRONMENT
As the Main Contractor the health and safety of our workers and the public is a top priority for JJ Rhatigan/ABM.

It is important that children/teenagers understand that construction sites are not a safe place to play, and they
should not try to enter construction sites at any time and/or MUST NOT ENTER SITE AT ANY TIME. We would
appreciate parents’ assistance in getting this point across to young children.

Construction sites are defined as high-risk work areas with those who work on site having specialised training and
equipment to undertake their tasks.

JJ Rhatigan & Company is proud to support and cooperate with the Considerate Constructors Scheme to commit to
care regarding the appearance of our site, respect the community in which we work, protect the environment by
our methods of working and choice of design and materials, secure everyone’s safety and value our workforce. We strive to maintain the highest standards on all our projects.

We apologies in advance for any inconvenience the construction activities may cause and to thank you for your
patience and consideration. Please be advised that it is our policy to ensure that all efforts be made to ensure minimal disruption to the neighbourhood for the duration of the construction period.
