Health & Safety
We are assessed annually by several contractor safety schemes. They are members of the SSIP forum (Safety Schemes in Procurement) and these assessments are designed to review and audit the Health & Safety documentation and procedures of the contractor. We can use our accredited status and certification as a means of demonstrating our level of Health & Safety compliance to clients and potential clients.
