At Gissat, understanding the client’s needs is priority.

We provide in-depth, guidance and tools to help businesses understand what they need to do to assess and control risks in a work place and comply with health and safety laws.

We believe that striking the appropriate balance upfront in the life cycle of a development project will limit the risks of costly delays in obtaining appropriate planning permissions, limit public resistance as well as limit unnecessary mitigation costs during the construction and operation stages of the development.
