The Considerate Constructors Scheme: Building Trust and Raising Standards

As a proud member of The Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS), we at Lofthouse Residences are committed to upholding and maintaining the highest standards in the construction industry. The CCS is an independently managed, not-for-profit organisation that works in partnership with the construction industry and the public to enhance community relations, protect the environment, and value the workforce. With a focus on three key areas; Respecting the community, Caring for the environment, and Valuing the workforce—the CCS promotes responsible and considerate practices throughout the construction process. Following our latest audit, we are delighted to announce our exceptional achievement of an 'Excellent' score in all three CSS pillars, demonstrating our dedication to continuous improvement and the pursuit of excellence.

Respecting the Community:

At the heart of the CCS's mission is the goal of respecting the community affected by construction activities. By prioritising good culture and positive leadership behaviours, we strive to improve community relations and ensure the construction process has a positive impact on local neighbourhoods. Through the Construction Site Leadership and Culture module offered by CCS, we have gained invaluable support to enhance our site's culture and leadership behaviours, resulting in improved communication, respect, and performance. Our commitment to community engagement and transparent communication enables us to address concerns and feedback from the public effectively.

Caring for the Environment:

Environmental sustainability is a core value of the CCS. We recognise the importance of minimising the impact of construction activities on the environment. By adhering to the CCS's guidelines, we make informed choices that help reduce our carbon footprint, conserve resources, and promote eco-friendly practices. Through innovation and best practices, we continuously strive to find new ways to achieve conformance with the CCS's Code of Considerate Practice. We actively participate in the CCS's annual national awards program, where exemplary approaches and innovative solutions are recognised, further encouraging us to explore sustainable methods within the construction industry.

Valuing the Workforce:

The CCS places great emphasis on valuing the workforce involved in construction projects. We understand that a motivated and well-cared-for workforce is crucial for achieving high standards and project success. By creating a supportive and inclusive work environment, we ensure the well-being, health, and safety of our workers. Through our commitment to fair employment practices, training, and professional development opportunities, we strive to enhance the skills and knowledge of our workforce. By valuing our workers, we foster a positive workplace culture that attracts and retains top talent.

Continuous Improvement and Building Trust:

The CCS's dedication to supporting continuous improvement and raising standards within the construction industry is commendable. The scheme acts as an external accountability mechanism, ensuring that registered activities adhere to the Code of Considerate Practice and undergo regular monitoring visits. By collaborating with CCS, we contribute to the collective effort to build trust and enhance the reputation of the construction industry. The scheme's new logo, inspired by symbols of attainment, represents the CCS's core values of independence, impartiality, and meaningful impact. We are proud to have achieved an 'Excellent' score in the three CSS pillars, signifying our commitment to excellence and our ability to consistently meet and exceed industry standards.
