About Us Our History When Thomas Johnstone, a talented carpenter from Ayrshire, founded what is now Thomas Johnstone Ltd back in 1868, he likely never envisioned that more than 150 years later we would be the industry-leading company you see today. It is hard to imagine our well-established, successful business’ humble beginnings as a sole trading entity! From 1868 to the present day a lot has changed, but our commitment to our people and the delivery of exceptional quality for our clients has been unwavering through the years. Our People ‘People’ is and always will be our first core value. This, coupled with our overarching vision “to be a great company to work for, and a great company to work with”, ensures that we recruit, train and retain the best people in our industry. We are committed to treating our team well and provide competitive remuneration and benefits packages as well as offering team building, training and internal development opportunities. Nurturing new talent and retaining skills for our workforce of the future is a key focus and we run very successful apprenticeships which lead to full-time employment. At present, despite the impact of the global pandemic, we have 21 apprentices at varying stages of their training. Our continued efforts have contributed to our impressive retention rates – 60% of our employees have been part of our team for over 5 years. 0 Combined Years of Service 0 Average Years’ of Company Service 0% Employees with 10+ Years’ Service Quality Our reputation for delivering exceptional quality and superior service has resulted in our enviable repeat client base. We endeavour to achieve zero defects on all projects, consistently delivering exceptional quality first time, every time. In order to ensure our levels of quality are maintained and that we deliver products and services with zero defects, we have a comprehensive quality management system in place. Quality is the responsibility of every member of our team and this, coupled with our active quality monitoring throughout our works, ensures that all of TJL’s projects are delivered to the highest standard. Our long-established Quality Assurance and Control procedures have been developed and refined over thousands of projects; receiving commendation from many clients. Health & Safety The health, safety and well-being of not only our workforce but all of our stakeholders is fundamental to the success of our business and we work hard to ensure that we maintain our excellent record in these areas. Our comprehensive Health & Safety Management System is regularly reviewed to ensure continuous improvement, legal compliance and adherence to industry best practice. TJL’s Health & Safety Management system meets the stringent standards of several SSIP schemes and industry groups including Altius and CHAS. Our commitment to Health & Safety is supported by our full programme of training and re-training which assists us in ensuring that every employee possesses, maintains and develops the relevant knowledge, skills and experience required to undertake work for us. 1,938 HSEQ Toolbox Talks Received Last Quarter 7 Mental Health First Aiders 57 First Aiders Environmental We are an environmentally conscious company.
