We are members of a number of leading Fire & Security organisations and related bodies – including the NSI, FIA, BAFE, ECA, FSA & JIB. We also have strong relationships with manufacturers and institutions but we always consider the merits of joining additional organisations from time to time. That is why we are proud to now join The Fire Protection Association.
Becoming members of the FPA provides with access to additional training and resources amongst other things, which will further strengthen our teams knowledge.
What a great opportunity FIREX International has been to catch-up with a number of familiar faces and also see the latest technologies available in our industry.
We deployed different teams of PFS staff each day with 12 staff going in total across the three day. It was great to be back at the EXCEL for the first time since before the pandemic and it was the first FIREX for several new members of staff to the business who have joined in the past few years.
Earlier this month we held our inaugural Office Sports Day with our Southend Office Team. The idea behind this was to promote healthy activity but also get a nice team bonding exercise going.
First of all it was fantastic to get everyone out of the office for a couple of hours of fun in our local park, I think everyone was pretty tired afterwards!
Earlier this month on 3rd February it was Time to Talk Day.
It was great to put some reminders up around the office reminding people of different ways they can get help when they need, and the importance of looking after their mental health.
One of our Mental Health Champions, Louise Dyson, held a private session to allow staff to discuss how they were feeling and mental health in general.
Yesterday we celebrated our 24th Birthday!
To make the day even sweeter Aimee Lovejoy & Amie Randall from our Operations & Service teams respectively, baked a batch of PFS themed cupcakes! Let’s be honest, you think they look am amazing just like we did!
Strangely there wasn’t time to get a photo of all the pizza’s as they all disappeared fairly quickly! We didn’t want our engineering teams to miss out either so they were all offered a free lunch too!
