Health & Safety

The health and safety of our team members across Finsbury Food Group is our top priority. Creating delicious baked goods should never come at the cost of our people’s wellbeing, so we implement a number of health and safety initiatives into every aspect of our operations.

Our holistic approach to wellbeing

We take a comprehensive approach to our team members’ wellbeing, focusing on three key areas: Financial Wellbeing, Physical Wellbeing, and Mental Health Wellbeing. Our cross-functional health and wellbeing steering committee supports these pillars through various initiatives throughout the year, including:

  • Debt Management Support
  • Menopause Awareness Week
  • Loneliness Week
  • Healthy Hearts
  • Neurodiversity at Work
  • Suicide Prevention

We’re proud to have over 80 trained Mental Health First Aiders across our business, providing support to colleagues whenever needed. Additionally, all team members and their families have access to our employee assistance program, offering support on financial, mental, and legal issues.

Our safety framework, HomeSafe

Our HomeSafe programme brings together all our health and safety practices in accordance with ISO45001 principles. This approach has led to a reduction in accidents and an increase in proactive safety reports. We’re committed to continuous improvement, supporting health and safety campaigns throughout the year, including European Health and Safety Week.

Knowledge is power when it comes to safety. That’s why we have a comprehensive health, safety, and environmental training blueprint that covers all levels of the organisation, from senior executives to team members. Our training is delivered through a blend of in-person and online approaches, ensuring that everyone understands their responsibilities and is equipped to fulfil them.

Partnerships for excellence in health & safety

We’re members of the British Safety Council, founder members of The Health and Safety Best Practice in Food Manufacturing Forum as well as The Institute of Occupational Health and Safety. These partnerships allow us to share best practices and adopt common standards across the food sector, ensuring that our commitment to safety is always aligned with the highest industry standards.

Our commitment to health extends to our products too. We’re proud to offer a range of plant-based products and products meeting 2027 Salt guidelines. We’re BRC compliant and hold our suppliers to the highest standards of food safety and integrity. This not only ensures the quality of our products but also contributes to the wellbeing of our customers, aligning with our broader mission to make a positive impact on the communities we serve.
