Merit for Apprenticeship’s Post

Good enough isn’t in our vocabulary. We hold ourselves to the highest standards on EVERY project. From leadership, laborers, and trade partners. It doesn’t matter who’s involved. We expect the best from everyone. Why? Because this allows us to approach every project like we’re building it for ourselves. That means no compromises, no second-rate work, and no cutting corners. We refuse to lower the bar, even if it would make life easier. That’s how we make sure every project isn’t just good but that it’s great. This standard allows us to knock it out of the park. And here’s the kicker: That’ll never change. When you work with us, you can trust that our standards are as high as your expectations. #construction #sommersconstruction #commercial

‘Cross-sector collaboration is crucial for developing a more skilled and adaptable workforce in construction and the built environment.’ This was the conclusion from the ‘Collaborative Futures: Competence, Capability & Capacity’ event hosted by the University College of Estate Management last week in London. The event brought together leaders from various sectors, including the Construction Industry Council, Construction Leadership Council. It aimed to share innovative strategies and best practices for training and improving the workforce’s skills, ensuring competence, increasing capacity, and enhancing capability. Tony Ellender, Professional Development Manager for Balfour Beatty UK, emphasised the importance of holistic training for employees. He highlighted a key point: “The best way to make employees leave is to not train them. But there's only one thing worse than training someone and they leave—it's not training them and they stay." We couldn’t agree more! Rasco is committed to helping our team members grow their careers by providing customised training and support. Everyone on our team can access Bright Safe E-Learning, which offers a variety of online courses. We also work with external Training Consultants to offer specialised programs, such as the Site Management Safety Training Scheme which our two site managers successfully completed a few weeks ago. At Rasco, we believe our employees are our greatest asset, and we value shared success. 🏆 #rasico #personaldevelopment #skilledworkforce #loveconstruction #stafftraining #dreamteam 

Building a strong culture in the construction industry... let's discuss. Construction is building things, whether new homes, schools, or businesses. However, using those skills to build a positive work culture for everyone involved is also essential. Safety is one of the biggest priorities in construction for apparent reasons, but safety extends further than wearing safety helmets and proper equipment operation. It's also about creating an environment where workers feel valued, starting with practical, transparent communication. #Construction #BuildingACulture #ConstructionWorkers #CompanyCulture #Leadership

As the Director of Damage Prevention and Safety at GAC Enterprises, LLC, I frequently encounter misunderstandings about the importance of 811 training. My all time personal favorite is "what do I need that for?" Proper training to prevent damage to underground utilities is crucial for anyone sharing in this responsibility. Allow me to explain some examples of how and why this training is essential for everyone involved in excavation and construction activities. Interactive Sessions: Engaging training sessions with hands-on activities and simulations can make the learning process more interesting and memorable. Incentives: Offering certificates, recognition, or small rewards for completing the training can motivate participation. #eatsleepdamagepreventionrepeat #GAC #safetyfirst #leadership #mistakes #habits

Exciting future ahead with this new type of technology.
