Comment from the owner, Adam Johnson:
“When we first started working with Praxis42 over 10 years ago, it was evident that they have the ability and the right approach in communicating the right culture.
They have helped us to implement and maintain high standards for health and safety for our business and our staff and are not there to simply chastise with a do this or do that approach.
