Empowering Our People

Creating a rewarding environment for our people is one of the core values that define our business. SOS Group ensures that our people have a safe and empowering place of work (physically, mentally, and socially), with adequate equipment, training, consultation, and supervision.

We actively encourage and provide personal development opportunities for employees who wish to expand their skills. Our aim is to cultivate an open, supportive environment where our people can succeed. While the cleaning industry often faces high turnover rates, SOS Group’s focus on career progression enables us to retain valuable talent and build lasting careers within our team.

Health, Safety & Wellbeing

We are committed to maintaining a strong strategy that ensures the health, safety, and welfare of everyone impacted by our activities, including those in our supply chain. Our goal is to rigorously comply with all current safety, health, and welfare legislation and codes of practice.

In addition to fulfilling our statutory obligations, such as annual updates to the Safety Statement, providing training, and making site-specific risk assessments and MSDS sheets readily available, we actively promote a safe culture. This is achieved through monthly monitoring of training, accident and near-miss reporting, and regular toolbox talks across all company operations.

Unsung Heroes Award

The SOS Group Unsung Heroes award is presented monthly to exemplary employees from our operations team. Each manager nominates one individual from their department who has shown significant personal development and consistently displayed excellent customer service qualities.

These nominations are then reviewed and discussed at our monthly management meeting. Our heroes receive a certificate, a place on our Head Office Wall of Fame, and a well-deserved reward, such as a restaurant dinner for two, to show our appreciation.
