Employee Welfare

Centrax is committed to employee development through lifelong learning. The Company is approved by the engineering sector skills council, SEMTA (Science and Engineering Manufacturing Training Alliance) to provide a safe learning environment through qualified and professional staff.

The facilities at our manufacturing centre in Newton Abbot include a fully-equipped Training School with a workshop, 3 classrooms, a self-learning centre and IT training suite and are among the best in the region. The Learning and Skills Council for Devon and Cornwall contracts with Centrax for the delivery of work-based training - as this is government supported, all our training is subject to rigorous audits from the Adult Learning Inspectorate.

Promoting equal opportunities are fundamental to the Company's philosophy. We provide work experience, sponsor undergraduates and encourage visits from schools and colleges, all of which help develop good relations with the local community.  The implementation of family-friendly work shift patterns has also opened wider opportunities for employment and career development.

Health, Safety and Environment

Centrax is committed to conducting its business activities in a manner that does not harm people or the environment. It makes provision for the health, safety and welfare of all employees, visitors and contractors as well as those in the community who may be affected by its activities.

It cares for the environment by operating all facilities and services to the highest environmental and professional standards.
The Health, Safety and Environmental Management Systems are designed around the international environmental management system standard ISO14001 (accredited in May 2001).
