  • City-REDI Policy Briefing Series
    City-REDI Policy Briefing Series March Image Image 2018 Part B Carillion’s Collapse: Consequences Dr Amir Qamar & Professor Simon Collinson Carillion, the second-largest construction firm in the UK, were proud of their commitment to support regional growth and small-scale suppliers. As part of this commitment they directed 60% of project expenditure to local economies. Following the collapse of the firm, this positive multiplier effect became a significant, negative multiplier effect, particularly damaging to small-scale suppliers in the construction industry. The aim of this policy brief is to examine the consequences of Carillion’s demise, many of which are only now surfacing. One of the fundamental lessons that we can learn from Carillion’s collapse is about these ‘contagion’ effects. As we saw in the 2008 financial crisis, the businesses that underpin the economic health of the country are connected and strongly co-dependent. When a large flagship firm falls it brings down others. This does not mean we need more state intervention. But it does mean we need more intelligent state intervention. One of the fundamental lessons that the Government can learn from the Carillion episode is that it has a significant responsibility as a key customer, using public sector funds for public sector projects, to monitor the health of firms and assess the risks prior to issuing PPI and other contracts. 1 Introduction The collapse of Carillion, the second-largest construction firm in the UK, has had a significant, negative knock-on effect, particularly on small-scale suppliers in the industry. In total, Carillion was comprised of 326 subsidiaries, of which 199 were in the UK.

The competitive nature of operating in the construction market can create an inflationary pressure on rewards paid to executives. There is a balancing act between aligning a company's success with their CEO’s remuneration (i.e. bonus, stock options etc.) and ensuring that the base salary is competitive enough to attract strong leadership talent. To address this challenge, this whitepaper examines the rewards paid to the CEOs of top ten UK construction companies in the context of both CEO rewards in the the top ten global construction firms and the remuneration earned by CEOs in ten companies of a similar scale across different sectors in the UK.

  • Interserve Modern Slavery Statement
    Interserve Modern Slavery statement We have a workforce of c 45,000 in the UK, c5,000 in our overseas subsidiaries and c22,000 in our Middle East associate companies, delivering construction, support services, and frontline services covering a range of sectors, worldwide.1 In addition to our directly employed workforce there are many people employed in our supply chain. Our values and our culture guide us to operate ethically and transparently. Consequently, we are committed to ensuring that Modern Slavery2 does not exist in our workforce or our supply chain. This statement should be read in conjunction with our Human Rights policy, http://www.interserve.com/docs/default-source/about/policies/human-rights-policy.pdf and with the policies and the supplier codes of conduct of our operating companies which state our position on human rights and the ethical standards we set for our own business activities and expect of our supply chain. Our whistle blowing policy and procedures http://www.interserve.com/docs/defaultsource/about/policies/whistle-blowing- policy.pdf?sfvrsn=14 provide clear guidance for our own employees and those employed in our supply chain on what to do should they suspect modern slavery is taking place. The main Modern Slavery risk within our subsidiaries’ operations stems from bringing workers employed by other companies on to our own or our customers’ sites, particularly agency workers. There are also potential risks in our supply chain in relation to goods and services at tiers 1 and below. Our suppliers and sub-contractors are required to comply with our business practices and ethical supply policies and our site induction processes extend to sub-contractors’ workers operating on our sites.
