Steel frame being lifted into place Creating a safety culture A comprehensive EHS programme was tailored to the project which was very successful as we had in excess of 3.2 million manhours accident free, and no environmental or business interruption issues. The Sisk values include ‘Care’, this is defined as ‘We take care of ourselves, the people we work with, the environment and the community in which we work’. This means we put occupational health and safety at the heart of everything we do.

Members of the Sisk team, CIT, Janssen and STEM students Field of Dreams Seeking to add to the community the project Construction Management Team of Janssen (Client), PM Group (Designer) and Sisk joined forces to volunteer at the “Field of Dreams” facility outside Ballincollig in County Cork which provides a learning and social environment for young adults with Down Syndrome. Over a three year plan the project will complete footpaths around the facility and construct a new fruit garden. This social project has been extremely well received by the operating team at the Field of Dreams and the level of volunteering by all parties is to be commended. Sisk team volunteering at The Field of Dreams "Sisk put people at the heart of the project, from the client, to the supply chain and to the local community. Technology was at the centre of overcoming project challenges in a difficult environment. The quality challenge related to new technology and the exacting requirements of the industry were met."
