Aermec’s new health and safety officer appointment

Aermec has appointed Lucy Hutchins as health, safety, environment & quality manager.

Lucy brings a vast amount of experience to the role. Her knowledge of health and safety will be a valuable addition to Aermec’s management and reinforces Aermec’s ongoing commitment to safety, security and well-being.

A group wide role, Lucy will oversee Aermec’s health, safety, quality operations including the planning, implementation, monitoring and reviewing of all policies and procedures.

“Lucy’s expertise will inform and strengthen our health and safety policies,” comments Paul Lawrence, managing director, Aermec UK.

As an experienced HSEQ (health, safety, environment and quality) professional, Lucy will be focused on ensuring the highest standards of safety and quality within the workplace.

She joins Aermec with a strong background in regulatory compliance, risk management and environmental sustainability,

“My personal aspirations are to build a culture that is strongly focused on organisational health and safety. I will be working with key stakeholders and supporting them with specialist advice, policies and guidance whilst promoting a culture of safety and continuous improvement,” says Lucy.

Lucy’s overall responsibility will be to minimising risks and ensure Aermec is compliant with legal and industry standards. But her remit will include collaborating with various departments within the business developing and implementing robust HSEQ policies and procedures, programming inspections and audits, as well as analysing incidents to identify root causes, and provide training and support to staff to enable them to enhance their understanding of safety practices.

She will also serve as a valuable resource for employees seeking guidance on well-being-related concerns and creating an open dialogue about mental health and ensuring employees feel heard and supported.

“Aermec is a fantastic business which is continually evolving and growing. With diversification into many market sectors of the HVAC industry, now more than ever it is imperative that there are robust health and safety strategies in place, whilst making our workplace a healthier, happier place for all.”

Prior to joining Aermec, Lucy held a number of health and safety roles across several sectors including environmental contracting and manufacturing.
