New hospice and housing development agreed for Southend site
A new multi-million pound hospice and between 150 and 180 new “high-quality” homes are set to be built in Southend following an agreement between housebuilder Bellway Homes and Havens Hospices, a news report in the local media has revealed.
The new development will be located on the former Ekco factory site, in Southend’s Priory Crescent, and, beside the homes and the 16-bedroom hospice, will also feature a small office block facing Priory Crescent, to appease councillors’ concerns over the loss of employment land.
An official application for the development will be submitted to Southend Council later this year.
Any company, regardless of its size, that’s actively involved in the construction sector should also seriously consider the implementation of a very strict and solid time and attendance and access control solution for all the employees and sub-contractors that will ultimately get involved in its projects, and that’s specifically where Time & Attendance South East can help.
Our systems are user-friendly, innovative and designed for the working environment. They also offer a wide array of features, such as support for contactless smart cards (which would really come in handy in a busy, dusty construction environment), as well as optional finger print biometrics and mobile phone SIM card support.
Moreover, the multi-user, networked, multi site Time and Attendance, Access Control, Fire Roll Call and security system includes European Working Time Directive checking and reporting and allows administrators to save up to 2000 employees, supports extensive shift management and payroll-related operations, the allocation of various pay bands, and much more.
