“I see this as a very positive development for our clients, the employees of SRA and Calibre”, said Ken Nolan, General Manager Calibre Safety Services.
“We expect to realise improvements and synergies across the areas of service delivery, quality assurance, financial management and client management”, he added.
Together, both organisations share a wealth of experience in the field of Occupational Health and Safety and specialist training and consulting.
