Client benefits
Our current clients tell us that the main reasons they joined the SAFecontractor scheme were -
- To ensure that all of their contractors are health & safety accredited.
- To reduce risk within their organisations .
- To have someone manage their contractor lists more efficiently and cost effectively.
They also told us that the most important factors in a successful accreditation scheme were -
- Credibility of scheme - SAFecontractor has almost 100 clients many of which are household names, with almost a third in the FTSE 100 - is that credible enough?
- High quality support for clients - SAFecontractor has a dedicated Client Support function which ensures that its implementation and ongoing relationship is professionally managed.
- Flexibility of service - SAFecontractor can be tailored to meet your own specific requirements and covers more than 100 different work activities.
- Simplicity of scheme - SAFecontractor is easy to understand with all the hard work undertaken by us.
- Cost effective for clients - one SAFecontractor client saved more than £30,000 a year - in addition to having their contractors vetted for Health & Safety.
In addition to removing the costly administrative burden SAFecontractor provides evidence that you are meeting your legal requirements. It also has a web-based facility so that you can both check the status of your current contractors and also search for new ones.
Do you know what your legal requirements are?
“…Where work is contracted out, contracts are sometimes used to pass on responsibilities. However, health and safety responsibilities cannot be passed on. Both parties have duties, and co-operation between them is essential if health and safety is to be properly managed.”
