TOP SAFETY ACCREDITATION FOR QUEST
25/07/2008
Quest has joined a leading edge scheme, designed to help industry improve its safety record.
Quest recently received accreditation from SAFEcontractor, a programme which recognises very high standards of health and safety amongst UK contractors.
SAFE contractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business and is expected to enhance the company’s ability to attract new contracts
Under the SAFEcontractor system, businesses undergo a vetting process, which examines health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice. Those companies meeting the high standard are included on a database, which is accessible to registered users only via a website, http://www.safecontractor.com/.
Employer-organisations that sign up to the scheme can access the database, which enables them to vet potential contractors before they even set foot on site. These employers agree that, as users of the scheme, they will engage only those who have received accreditation.
