Safety is the number 1 priority within our business.

Everyone who works with us including our people, our clients and our partners are part of our team for the long term.

As with many businesses, our people are our strength and are the reason we have such strong relationships with our clients. We have many familiar faces who have been with the business for a long time, in some cases over 35 years, but we also have many newer faces. We make sure there is a mentoring process so that our newer members can learn from our longer serving people about our processes and our ethos of delivering quality and excellence consistently. We are proud that people have started with Addingtons as a labourer and have worked their way up to senior management. We reward effort and encourage promotion from within.
