Mitie celebrates 10 years of gritting services

To celebrate 10 years of successful gritting operations, Mitie, the facilities management company, will be hosting three free winter gritting conferences across the country this summer.

The conferences will take place in Edinburgh on Tuesday 23 June, Birmingham on Thursday 9 July and London on Tuesday 8 September. They are open to all property managers who require gritting for their estate in the winter months.

The half-day seminar will cover issues such as understanding gritting risks, how to protect your organisation against insurance claims, how to cope with unpredictable weather and the benefits you can enjoy through innovation and new IT systems.

Mitie’s gritting experts and its guest speakers from the insurance, legal and risk management industries will draw on its decade-long experience in the gritting and snow clearance industry to review some of the best and worse personal injury claims handling.

Tim Howell, Managing Director of Mitie’s landscapes business, said:

“We are very proud to have reached a decade in gritting operations. It is a significant milestone and a reflection of our team’s dedication and skills.

“However, now is not the time to sit back and enjoy the sun. Look beyond your holiday plans; now’s the time to get to grips with your winter 2016 gritting programme!”
