ISO 45001:2018 – Occupational Health & Safety Management System

Legacy is proud to have achieved the requirements and certification for the ISO 45001:2018 Occupational H&S management system. Operating in accordance with this system means that Legacy is working to a proven H&S framework that is universally used and recognised around the world. Surveillance audits are carried out annually to ensure that our systems and procedures are adhering to the required framework and that they are of a high international standard.

Many contractors claim to understand the standards required for skilled repairs to important heritage buildings, yet few can deliver the standard required. Buildings with fundamental weather tightness failures are a challenge for the most experienced contractors, due to the demands of the current Building Code, and the requirement for a consistently high standard of work. With respect to the above projects, Legacy Construction have demonstrated their capabilities in both of these difficult areas of work.

Phillip Hartley - MA MRICS Chartered Building Surveyor
“Legacy Construction has really experienced personnel. Their guys on site are really proactive at driving things forward rather than waiting until something goes wrong. Where possible they try and foresee issues and, to avoid delays, give consultants advance notice so that they have adequate time to come up with a plan to resolve matters. They are very good at driving a project with regards to programming – and at looking forward and seeking information in advance to keep the work progressing.

We entered the Symonds St Toilets for a Resene award and it won the Heritage Maestro Award - congratulations and thank you to everyone who worked so hard on this complicated, much loved little building.
