Amar Sandhawalia is leading Fortel's diversity drive

At Fortel, minorities already make up the majority, but this doesn't necessarily make it diverse.

Nearly two-thirds of Fortel’s workforce comes from minority ethnic backgrounds so its diversity drive is focused on getting more women, more disabled people and more people with minority sexual preferences and/or identities (LGBTQ+) into the company.

It will also assess the background of existing employees to determine scope for greater diversity within the 60% of the workforce that is from a minority ethnic background.

Fortel supplies more than 2,000 staff to infrastructure projects with major contractors across the UK. It turned over £117m in 2019.

It has made a five-step pledge towards boosting diversity in its ranks.

To support its goal of increasing workforce diversity by 25% by 2025, it has launched a diversity & inclusion (D&I) training and assessment scheme, set up a D&I steering group and is planning quarterly D&I events. There is also a work placement initiative for people from under-represented demographic groups

Chief operating officer Amar Sandhawalia said: “We have always put great emphasis on the importance of diversity and inclusion.  2020 was a year where calls were made far and wide for progress – from industry associations and business leaders to education bodies and eminent individuals – but we do believe that we are at the start of a change in attitude and culture.

“We want to lead from the front in this and play our part in creating a more diverse talent pool, the impacts of which will be transformative for the industry.”

Do you often have a look at the recent state of things and become extremely disappointed with everything that surrounds you? Do you see the corruption and the lack of quality surrounding you, piling up over our heads in this world, due to people yearning to give less and make more?

Do you often see businesses failing and squirming to reach the top, trying to do absolutely anything to get there, even by selling things that are harmful for someone and of quite low of a quality or construction? Do you wonder what these people get out putting the lives of the rest of the public at risk?

Do you see buildings crashing and the laborers not doing their most? Do you hear the cries of the thousands of people that are affected if something trivial is not built properly and leads to the death or destruction of much?

Do you wish to trust in a service that will provide you with nothing but the most honest work? Do you hope to finally find someone who will deliver on quality as well as a maximum effort for everyone? Do you wish to finally come across someone who does not lie and bury the safety of others under a pretense?

If the answer to any of the following is yes, then you are truly in tune with the world around you and want to see a positive change, hoping to believe in the good in the world. And if you feel all this, then you must also like the service that we provide.

What is Fortel?

Fortel is a company that was founded by Surinder Nijjer in 1998. It proudly provides a service to everyone who wishes to have excellent work and be distinguished by their superior structure and timely done work.

Fortel Nijjer is, at it’s very roots, an organization that provides laborers to construction projects throughout the United Kingdom. It is distinguished by the excellent skill that it provides and the service that is ultimately done with an extremely high level of professionalism.

Role of Fortel Owner in Construction Industry

Fortel is the leading provider of laborers in the construction sector of the United Kingdom. The services offered by our company center around our laborers carrying out the manual labor for your project in order to make it a huge success! Our laborers are trained to carry out construction jobs of varying complexities and construct every structure just as you wish it to be.

Services Offered by Fortel

We offer a wide range of services pertaining to construction through the manual skill of our employed labors. They build the very foundation from the first brick and collaborate closely with the engineers and other workers to make the project worth investing in. We also contact with dealers who sell the construction material and can supply it as per the demand of your project.

Catering to All Your Needs

Hiring professionals can be a tricky thing to do. You have to weight down numerous pros and cons before deciding who you really want for your business. You, for sure, no matter what the circumstances are of your construction company or the project that you are handling, want someone who is skillful enough to deal with any technicality that may arise and is adept in handling the project in the best way possible, ensuring that everything about the project is done perfectly.

You also look for professionalism, apart from skill. The ability to work efficiently with the other people employed on a construction project, for instance the engineers, is vital, as it shows that the laborers that you have employed, value the efficiency of the project and want to make it their own by giving it their all and working in the most amiable and intelligent way possible. Working well with engineers, as in the proposed example, is just one of the ways in which the success of the project can be determined.

Apart from this, you may also be looking for efficient workers; those who will complete a project and do their work on time as divided. Fortel is a company that strives to provide you with laborers that will ease your burden and meet the requirements and deadlines of your construction project as per your wishes. Not only that, but they will ensure that the factor of time is met with effective and smart work so as not to endanger the project and make it one of extreme quality.

Fortel's Promise

Fortel manages its laborers by providing them with high end training and experience before referring them to you. It is ensured that they uphold the values of Fortel and do not disappoint you in any regard.

They are trained to such a high level of degree that they are extremely skillful in tackling any issue or any situation as it may arise, having been honed as to how to deal with such conditions. They will also not complain about any extreme conditions that may arise as long as it is reasonable.

The laborers reflect the best of Fortel itself and will not disappoint. In fact, Fortel has quickly risen to be one of the best suppliers in the country, making its mark on the world. Its progress has not stopped; it is quickly rising, minute by minute, making you completely benefit from our work and efficient service.

The Values of Fortel

This undeterred progress only proves one thing, and that is the fact that Fortel has strong values and provides their services based on them, given to the company by its owner, Surinder Nijjer. But what are these values that lift them up to the very top?

The values of Fortel are:

• Quality
• Sustainability
• Fairness
• Teamwork
• Pride
• EDI

As you may notice, these qualities are just what any company needs to succeed in the global market. However, it is not easy for everyone to do so.

Why is that?

Its because companies like Fortel work day and night with extreme intelligence and skill to make the most of any situation. They are prepared for the future and make sure they do not hinder from these values for even a second.

Due to this, the reason behind Fortel's success is it’s own determination. It is a company that has worked day and night to provide you with nothing short of the best. Not only is it willing to make your construction project the talk of the town, but also to help you well known in the United Kingdom for the reliability and quality of your project. We work well with everyone and become a team to be reckoned with.

Conclusion 

If you want a service that does not fail you under any circumstances, then this is the one. We deliver with nothing but the cream of the profession. Contact us right away so that we can turn your aspirations into reality!

Fortel is a British based construction services business headquartered in Birmingham that provides workforce to the construction and civil engineering industries. The company delivers sub-contract work and human resources services to the roads & highways, hotel, commercial, retail, and rail sectors.

What is Fortel?

Fortel is one of the foremost companies of the United Kingdom. It provides you labor in all spheres of mechanical or physical work. To further compound its resplendent and unbeatable service, it has been named by Deloitte’s Futures 1000 as the best and excellent performing services of the recent years.

The Defining Aspects of Fortel, As Provided By Its Owner, Sat Nijjer

Like all great companies, Fortel is one that has built a niche for itself. This is extremely difficult to attain, given the current market place that we live in. Competition seeps in from right and left, and companies with no determination or hard luck are often drowned out in all this competitive work commotion. But what do the companies have that stand erected and beat or match the competition head on when faced with it?

Such companies, Fortel included, are some of the most formidable and talent creating ones. That means, they ensure that the labour they provide is of the utmost quality, and in order to do that, they first train them according to their ideals and make them capable of doing a particular job with maximum efficiency and skill, recognizing talent in particular people and implementing it.

The Values of Fortel

However, that is not the key factor that determines the success of companies. Wherever you turn your eyes, you will find companies both good and bad, estranged by one factor alone: their motto and principles or values. These values are the defining factors of the work produced by a company and can make or break it.

Fortel takes pride in its well-defined categories that cater to their most primal objectives. They are as follows:

• Quality
• Sustainability
• Fairness
• Teamwork
• Pride
• EDI

If you assess these values, you will realize that they are what any company would need in order to succeed and provide effective services. But in order for this to happen, it is important for the implementation of this set of values.

Fortel rises above in this aspect too. It ensures that all its hard cut values are implemented by keeping a close communication with the labour that it provides. Due to this, there are very few moments, almost non existent, where they fail to show how adept they are.

On 5th September, as planned, all arrived at The Bullring at 5:45am and after a health & safety briefing the groups departed The Bullring between 6am and 630am to start the event using the pre planned route through busy towns, peaceful villages, high altitude hills and beautiful country sides.

The riders encountered some drizzle in the first hour but the weather was generally kind on the long British summer day.

The first group arrived at the final destination The Roman Bath at 1530 and the last group arrived at 1630. 21 cyclists managed to complete the challenge in 10hours having endured a first puncture after four miles, followed by five more, a broken pedal during the course of the day. The only potentially serious incident occurred, 2miles before finish line, involved one of our team members being hit by a car while he was standing on a pavement for a drink break, causing a minor injury from which he has now recovered.

Our chairman & other Board member were waiting on the finish line to congratulate all participants and present medals.

To celebrate the day sharing experiences over a well deserved meal!
