West Yorkshire based manufacturer Siddall and Hilton Products Ltd are working towards becoming a World Class mesh manufacturer through developing the business culture, processes, and policies, including achieving the ISO 14001 Occupational Health and Safety Standard by 2022. 

Siddall and Hilton Products are hoping to learn more about Health and Safety Best Practice from fellow Made in Yorkshire members to achieve their goal. Pam Jackson, Business Development Manager, is responsible for Employee Resource Planning and Engagement as well as helping to benchmark the business. She said:

“We aim to become a world-class mesh manufacturer and to do this benchmarking is key. As part of this, it is all about achieving international best-practice standards. Our mission is to set industry-leading benchmarks to deliver sustainable profitability and becoming the local employer of choice This means setting relevant, challenging but attainable KPIs across the business.

A major step towards achieving this goal is to attain the ISO 14001 Occupational Health & Safety Standard.” 

 To strengthen the company’s already good health and safety track record, the company has introduced a number of new initiatives and procedures. This has included the appointment of a full time, NEBOSH-qualified Health & Safety Coordinator, holding daily briefings at which staff are encouraged to identify, record and highlight hazards to the senior team, ensuring that actions to rectify the problems are taken promptly, the introduction of a ‘near miss’ incident reporting system, company-wide CPR training and mental health awareness training for key staff. 

Pam said the company joined Made in Yorkshire because they want to learn best practice from like-minded companies, she added:

“As well as becoming world-class, we want to be the local employer of choice to future proof the business. We became a Made in Yorkshire member because we are all about best practice; we want to learn from what other companies are doing and share our experience with them too.”
