By putting the standard into practice, we can avoid work-related illnesses and injuries and adhere to all applicable legal and regulatory obligations.”

CS Ellis South Luffenham and Whetstone hubs score 100% in Palletline’s internal 45001- led audit process

The annual health and safety audit follows ISO 45001 and FORS standards and reviews all Occupation Health and Safety (OSH) processes, including OSH policy, management structure, incident reporting systems, vehicle and transport records, employee handbooks, safety records, risk assessments, training records, fire and emergency procedures, and environmental issues.

“Aligned with ISO 45001: Health and Safety Management, Palletline’s audit process has over the years established the standards for our own ISO 45001 certification journey, commencing Q2 2024,” said James Munton, Director of Infrastructure, Health, and Safety.

CS Ellis is proud to announce that we have been awarded BRCGS AA for storage and distribution. The achievement demonstrates our commitment to continuous improvement and our unwavering pursuit of excellence.

James Munton, Director of Infrastructure and Health and Safety, said, “BRCGS has now become central to our business values, demonstrating that we adhere to a measured set of standards and are compliant with all relevant requirements and legislation, and to achieve an AA with our first attempt is testament to the team involved.”

Steve Gray, Managing Director, “We have earned our reputation by delivering dependable logistics solutions throughout the UK for over 90 years; achieving BRCGS AA can only strengthen that position. Commercially, the standard will allow us to continue our growth strategy as we support the food, beverage, and packaging sectors. We are delighted with the outcome, and the efforts of everyone involved.”
