Training at Floorbrite

At Floorbrite, we believe we’re only as good as the people who work for us. That’s why we invest time and money into the training and development of our staff. We recognise the need to continue training beyond initial qualifications, maintaining and upgrading skills throughout our working life. We provide both on-the-job and off-the-job training, delivered by our managers, or external sources to achieve a specific professional qualification.

Our Health & Safety Department ensures the following

• Provide suitable and effective training systems for the business
