Gavin Coyle offers a fresh pair of eyes: he will often spot the potential for hazard”

“Gavin Coyle and the team have given us valuable safety insight over the years, working mainly on our windfarms but also on conventional power station projects.

Power generation is an exciting, dynamic business, but it need not be a dangerous one. At Energia we are immensely proud of our safety record: our managers and workers are happy to share much of the credit with Gavin Coyle and his team”.

“Rengen Power manage renewables assets for many different owners in Ireland. We ensure that the projects are both operating at the highest possible level of production, and more importantly to the highest safety standards. We use integrated operation control software to ensure that the assets achieve these standards. We have worked with Coyle Group to independently verify that we’ve delivered on our promise of safety. It’s a partnership which has achieved real improvements in our H&S performance. We look forward to continuing our journey with Coyle Group.”

“Jones Engineering found Coyle Group to be very pro-active and efficient in assisting us with our staffing needs. They listened to and understood our requirements and expectations for specific project placement in pharma, commercial and industrial sectors. The Coyle Group team are professional, honest and curteous and have excellent communication skills. They have sourced key personnel who have integrated into our team and contributed to the smooth running and success of a number of our projects.” We have found Coyle Group consultants to have excellent knowledge and understanding of health and safety requirements for the mechanical and electrical sectors within the construction industry. One of the top leaders when it comes to health and safety recruitment and consultancy. Coyle Group are a professional, reliable and trustworthy company with whom we have established an excellent working relationship. We would highly recommend them for recruitment and consultancy requirements.”

We want to go far further [than the regulations]… Coyle Group thinks the same way. ESBI provide engineering and safety services support on Generation station overhauls. These projects entail anything from minor to major overhaul and provide key challenges in safety management. Gavin[Coyle] has supplied competent EHS personnel to support our role in safety management in key project positions. Coyle Group also supplied EHS talent to our Windfarm construction operations. We find his people very flexible (times, shifts, locations, etc) but also highly adaptive. At this stage, with a worldwide reputation, ESBI is far beyond doing the legal minimum. Safety law offers just that a minimum standard. We want to go far further, making all our plants safer while ensuring our staff and contractors go home without incident. Signs are that Coyle Group thinks the same way”.

"In 2011 ESB Poolbeg Combined Cycle underwent a mid-life refurbishment of its generating plant. Coyle Group provided a site Safety Officer to support this very significant undertaking. This service provision covered planning, execution, commissioning and project closeout. The singular focus of the Safety Officer was to ensure that the outage was completed without injury. To put the scope of the work in context, this outage represented the most concentrated maintenance activity that the station will undergo in its lifetime. What particularly marked the service provided by Gavin Coyle as successful was the supportive, pragmatic and involved approach to safety – the focus was always about offering support and advice and never about ‘catching’ people out. A very effective safety communications process was put in place, including a 15 minute ‘safety only’ meeting where all site parties could contribute to a discussion on the upcoming activities for the day with safety of peer workers to the fore in peoples thoughts. From start to finish safety was seen as an essential part of project activity, it was never seen as a burden. The people skills and commitment levels demonstrated by Coyle Group contributed in no small part to the safe completion of this very challenging project"

“The bespoke health and safety legal training that Gavin Coyle developed and delivered was excellent! The training was both interesting and interactive, both of the trainers were very knowledgeable with lots of industry experience which really enhanced the training. They provided us with the essential health and safety information that we needed, as well as giving us a valuable insight through their own practical experience into health and safety within the onshore wind industry in Ireland. I thoroughly enjoyed the training and would recommend Coyle Group to others.”

“Coyle Group have always provided our company with the most effective solutions and have always been extremelly supportive. The Coyle Group consultant is an experienced and professional H&S adviser, who is still working with our team. I would describe him as one of the best and more knowledgeable consultants I have worked with, a resolute trouble-shooter. I have worked with a few other H&S consultancy companies since I took on my role in 2017, but the efficiency of the services provided by Coyle Group consultants and the professionality and expertise of Coyle Group consultants are proof enough to strongly believe their leadership in the H&S domain. I would absolutely recommend Coyle Group to any company searching for the highest standards with regards to H&S consultants and H&S services.”
