Social Value

At Billington Structures we are committed to delivering social value within the local communities from which we operate. Our focus is to bring clear enhancements to the local communities and stakeholders in the surrounding areas. We recognise the clear benefits of operating in a socially sustainable and environmentally conscious manner, embedding social value into the ethos and principals of our business.

Our Social Value initiatives are continually aligned to the strategic objectives of our clients and key stakeholders within the regions we operate and nationally. Our commitments will always aim to have a strong focus in areas such as employment, training, education, diversity, inclusion, health, wellbeing and the environment. From a social and regenerative perspective, conserving resources is vital. Interconnected social value benchmarks requires a commitment from our teams in all sectors of our business.

The Group has contributed to many local projects and we always try to attract local labour to our offices and sites across the UK. A priority for us is to give back to local regions and it’s important to us to establish partnerships within the local areas in which we operate.

We have invested in our people, processes, equipment and buildings to improve productivity, safeguard local employment and ensure the company is at the forefront of technical advancements. As a steel engineering and manufacturing organisation, we can provide opportunities, apprenticeships and upskill, retaining local talent at our facilities. In 2022-23, 80% of our employees worked in South Yorkshire and 20% of employees have worked for the company for over 15 years.
