Alcumus Safe Contractor
More than ever, it’s critical for construction organisations to prioritise the safety of everyone within their supply chain, from their own employees to the contractors they work with. We’re here to support you in upholding the professional standards of your organisation by offering transparency and visibility throughout your supply chain.
Although construction is vital for progress, it carries substantial health and safety risks. As an organisation, you’re tasked not only with ensuring a safe and healthy work environment but also with providing training, identifying risks, and regularly reviewing contractor compliance and safety policies.
Supply chain compliance and visibility are essential for meeting regulatory requirements, mitigating risks, upholding ethical standards, and improving efficiency with organisations. Real-time monitoring of contractor compliance and the ability to identify potential risks are indispensable.
As environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance gains more importance at the board level, construction companies need to update their supply chain management and reporting abilities, as well as their procurement processes, to demonstrate their commitment to these priorities.
SafeContractor stands out as one of the few health and safety certification schemes that go beyond core criteria. We ask contractors dynamic, risk-based questions tailored to their business profiles and work types, ensuring all queries are relevant and proportionate to the specific risks involved.
Our dynamic risk-based assessment is designed to mitigate risks and prioritise safety. From ensuring compliance with industry best practices and continuously monitoring health and safety credentials to assessing operational, ethical, and financial risks, we’ve got you covered.

At SafeContractor, we understand the unique challenges faced by small contractors, which is why we take a proportionate approach to our assessments. Our evaluation process is scaled to fit the size and complexity of each contractor’s business, ensuring it’s both fair and manageable. Despite this tailored approach, we maintain rigorous standards to ensure all contractors are compliant and competent to undertake work.
Our SafeContractor certification pre-qualification question set aligns with the Common Assessment standard (CAS) and our certification aids in CDM compliance. Covering quality management, environmental practices, health and safety, and social responsibility, these standards enhance reputation, build stakeholder trust, improve efficiency, mitigate risks, and boost competitiveness.
