Health & Safety

Safety is part of how we work.

We expect our teams to work responsibly, follow site procedures, understand hazards and communicate concerns promptly.

Practical risk awareness in real orchard environments.

Horticultural work can involve physical activity, tools, vehicles, machinery, weather, uneven ground and repetitive tasks. Everyone has a role in maintaining a safer workplace.

Where applicable, our teams are expected to comply with both Dubb Horticulture requirements and the health and safety procedures of the client site.
