Pristine Condition has worked with Thames Water for a number of year’s and has covered a wide range of safety subjects with the overall aim of completely eliminating manual handling incidents in the business and instil a safety culture that valued worker’s safety.

We recently received feedback on the impact our partnership with Thames Water has made.

Thames Water, Head of Health, Safety & Wellbeing, begins:

“Thames Water has been partnered with Pristine Condition now for a number of years, and as a result seen a significant decrease in our manual handling and musculoskeletal related injuries with our direct labour and our partners. There are multiple reasons why Thames Water continue to work with Pristine Condition but the number one reason is their passion.

Led by Davy the team have the cohesion, energy, passion and knowledge to drive positive change within any organisation. The principles they use have been tweaked and developed over time resulting in huge success from a dedicated workforce.”

In addition to Pristine Condition’s traditional services, we were also asked to develop a proto-type kit to assist an activity that had the potential to cause injury.

Thames Water’s Head of Health, Safety & Wellbeing continues:

“Pristine Condition even developed a specific lifting key for pit covers with Thames Water which is aptly named, ‘the pristine lifting key’ which is used widely today across Thames Waters region.

If you want to reduce your manual handling incidents, build the knowledge, skills and competence of your workforce, I wouldn’t look anywhere else.”

Davy Snowdon, Pristine Condition's founder and CEO added:

 “The results we have achieved at Thames Water is outstanding, but not surprising. Thames Water have been, and continue to be, a pleasure to partner with, and their committed staff are diligent in their application of our principles.

Thames Water have bought into our programme, especially the sustainability aspect which is key to behavioural change, and, ultimately, the great results we are seeing.

Training gets the buy-in, sustainability gets the results.

Among other benefits, our approach will lead to significant positive implications to their employee’s well-being as well as reduced strain on doctors and health services. 

While Pristine Condition guarantees a 50 per cent reduction in workplace injuries, a majority of the organisations we work with achieve far greater reduction rates using proven Olympic techniques.

Our goal is to completely eradicate manual handling accidents and injuries and we look forward to sharing more success with Thames Water in the future. Well done to all!”
