Westhill understand that by operating within the property and development industry, we have a responsibility not only to our investors but also to communities, our staff and the environment and thus we strive to work within the framework of the Construction Clients' Charter.
For this reason, Westhill takes a holistic approach to business, placing the accent on integrity by focusing on best practice and the establishment of the highest standards of professionalism and corporate social responsibility.
Local Communities
By building a local presence wherever we operate, we create employment opportunities both directly and through the use of local suppliers. We make a point of respecting local cultural values and traditions and contributing to communities which includes providing children's play areas, fully wheel chair accessible apartments, and donations to public parks.
Our Staff
The career development of our staff is key to safeguarding Westhill's future success and this fact is reflected in our strong commitment to investing in their training and development. Employees are monitored at each level and given an annual appraisal and six-monthly reviews with a full company update.
The Environment
We constantly strive to lessen our impact on the environment. To this end, we seek to work with contractors, suppliers and professional partners who are mindful of the issues and who seek to implement ecologically sensitive practices.
From the land choices we make and the selection of environment-friendly, energy-efficient building materials, to programmes of tree planting and recycling, and a policy of minimising the number of air miles travelled on business, we are committed to increasing the range and depth of sustainable practices across the organisation.
