Diamond Flooring view training as an essential cornerstone of our business, training provides stability & a means of moving forward, either through our apprenticeships, health & safety compliance training, or updating & increasing our existing knowledge, training brings improvement & that can only add to our existing resources.

In conjunction with the CITB the company has always had apprentices. Currently we have 4 apprentices / improvers who are at various stages of their training with us, they receive training in college & on site for a period of 4-5 years until they are completely accomplished in all aspects of floor-laying.

The company currently has 4 employees who have been through our apprenticships & are now a vital component in the company’s activity.

We believe that by employing apprentices brings not just benefits to the apprentice but also to our staff who train them, by giving them an opportunity to give something back to the trade, the company & local community it also breeds team spirit & a welfare culture within the company, that in turn leads to better results in both quality & efficiency in all our activities.

All on- site personnel receive first aid, Asbestos removal (non- licensed) training every 12 months.

Tool box talks are used to update staff on the latest techniques or on subjects that have been identified as being a weakness & need improvement.

Our health & Safety management is not out sourced but instead we have an inhouse team that has been trained with two members being NEBOSH level 3 accredited ( occupational health & safety ) & one member having achieved IOSH (managing safely)

By constantly liaising with suppliers & trade literature over new techniques & products it is in the interest of Diamond Flooring to filter this information to its employees, this is achieved in various ways but industry led training schemes are a source constantly tapped by Diamond Flooring to enhance our skills, improve & expand our knowledge, our staff regularly attend workshops & training courses with this in mind.
