Working Together To Improve Construction Health & Safety
Whether you are a Principal Contractor, Contractor, Principal Designer or Designer, we have been helping businesses become accredited to health and safety schemes and becoming approved suppliers for many years.
It can be quite daunting and off putting trying to answer all the questions, figuring out what the right responses should be and what supporting documentation ought to be submitted.
Marpal’s experienced Construction Health and Safety Consultants are at hand to offer you the help and assistance you need!
Acceptance on to a Health & Safety accreditation scheme requires you to demonstrate that your business meets the requirements and standards of a set criteria. This can be quite challenging for those who are unfamiliar with these schemes.
When looking to become accredited, the important thing to bear in mind is that the information you submit will be assessed by the Accreditation Scheme Assessor – therefore, it is important to ensure that the information provided is relevant and comprehendible. If it is incomplete, disjointed or lacks any clarity, this will simply be returned to you asking for clarification and the whole process could become very time-consuming.
Friendly and reliable health and safety assistance and support is only a phone call away!
In order to be successful, you will need help and assistance from your Health & Safety Competent Person. Large companies will have inhouse Health & Safety Advisors, whereas small to medium-sized companies may need some support from an external Health & Safety provider, such as Marpal.
No matter who is assigned to assist with your application (whether internally or externally), you must ensure that your Health & Safety Competent Person(s) has a sound knowledge of your organisation and construction Health & Safety. The whole process will involve liaising with an Accreditation Scheme Adviser to ensure you meet the standards required. This process can be time-consuming and may also involve the development of new policies, procedures, and Health & Safety arrangements.
Should you require any advice, help, or assistance regarding CHAS, SafeContractor, or any other third-party Accreditation Scheme, please contact one of our Construction Health and Safety Advisers, give us a call today on 01332 668877 or email us at [email protected].
