“We are committed to providing the highest level of customer service and support, together with precision-engineered solutions.

“We first joined SafeContractor in 2004, and have maintained our membership for over sixteen years. Achieving a UK-leading certification evidences to our customers and our team that we take health & safety excellence seriously and are committed to working safely on every project we undertake. During this time, our certification has enabled us to join the approved contractor list for several leading food manufacturers who only work with SafeContractor certified companies.” continued Mark.

SafeContractor, the UK’s leading health and safety certification, verifies an organisation’s health and safety compliance and connects contractors to leading organisations through an online portal. This showcases their profile to hundreds of companies that only work with SafeContractor members, saves time and money when bidding on new tenders and gives them the peace of mind that their health and safety practices are complaint with the law.

Gemma Archibald, Managing Director of Alcumus SafeContractor, said: “No-one goes to work to get injured. Major organisations simply cannot afford to run the risk of employing contractors who are not able to prove that they have sound health and safety policies in place.”

“SafeContractor plays a vital role in supporting our clients in meeting their compliance needs, whilst working with their contractors as they progress through the approval process. During the current economic impact of COVID-19 its more important than ever that contractors enhance their reputation and win work. Achieving our UK-leading certification demonstrates their commitment to delivering the highest standards of health and safety.”

“We’re thrilled that Sewtec Automation Ltd have been SafeContractor members for sixteen years. We wish them every success with their future and are proud to have such a well-established company within our community of over 37,000 contractors.”
