Ligtas
Expert Health and Safety Consultancy

The construction industry covers a wide range of activities, from large-scale construction projects to very small house renovations. It employs more than 18 million people and contributes to 9 percent of the EU’s GDP. With so many employees to take care of, basic health and safety and legal practices must be adhered to in construction sites. For several decades, the construction industry has had poor health and safety records. But those times have passed, and with the OSH Framework Directive, minimum safety and health requirements are now mandatory at construction sites. Construction companies seldom have the expertise to adhere to these safety compliances. Ligtas Limited—a health safety, and environmental consultancy service provider—is solving this problem and helping construction companies stay compliant with the regulations.

Ligtas Limited has over 20 years of experience in providing consultancy to businesses. It has a network of experts in the UK who relentlessly work to help clients maintain brand reputation by enabling them to provide a safe and secure work environment to construction workers. It is a customer-centric brand, for which it invests in the latest IT systems to ensure that updated solutions are offered to the customers.
