HEALTH and safety specialist Industry Training Services (ITS) has invested £300,000 in expanding its headquarters in Portadown and opening a new office in Dublin.
The company said the move has doubled the size of the training facility on its 12 acre site in Co Armagh.
Founder and managing director Brendan Crealey said the firm is busier now than at any time in its 22-year history.
“As organisations begin to experience recovery from the impact of the pandemic they need our training for their staff more than ever, due to the sheer volume of recruitment that is happening in the construction industry across Ireland.
“As part of our own Covid recovery plan this £300,000 investment in new training equipment, including boom and scissor lifts, increased staffing, extending our headquarters and building additional facilities, will ensure we meet demand from organisations in the construction and manufacturing industries across Ireland that wish their staff to achieve accreditation to the highest health and safety standards.”
