Construction Safety Charter Accreditation
Major improvements in health and safety management have been achieved in the construction industry. Site Safe Head of Agreement Companies have made significant improvements in safety planning, communication, monitoring and accountability.
In today's construction market, many clients are looking to achieve "best value" from their construction projects. To achieve this, clients are looking beyond low price when selecting contractors by looking at actual on-site performance. Site Safe has worked with an industry team to develop an Accreditation Programme designed to measure site safety performance. Contractors performing at a high level are recognised through Accreditation. This information can then be used by clients to pre-qualify and select contractors based in part on safety performance. For contractors, Accreditation can be used to gain a competitive advantage in a tight construction market.
