ASM Integrated Workplace Solutions
Top Safety Accreditation for Accommodation Services Management Ltd
 
altASM is one of the latest companies to join a leading edge scheme, designed to help industry improve its safety record.
 
We recently received Accreditation from SAFEcontractor, a programme which recognises very high standards of health and safety practice amongst UK contractors.
 
General Manager Ian Beaton said: “We have a good safety record, with excellent feedback from clients, along with awards from RoSPA. However, we must continually strive to improve even further, and to demonstrate that our systems and working methods are to the highest standards”.
 
SAFEcontractor Accreditation is expected to enhance a company’s ability to attract new contracts and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by clients, subcontractors, and insurers.
 
SAFEcontractor is applicable to most sectors although it is particularly relevant to food manufacture, property, facilities management, retail and leisure sectors, all of which are big users of contract services. 
 
Darran Hughes, Operations Director for SAFEcontractor said; “Major organisations can no longer run the risk of employing contractors who are not able to prove that they have sound health and safety policies”.
 
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.
 
Employer-organisations who 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.
 
Over 100 major nation-wide businesses, from several key sectors, have signed up to use the scheme when selecting contractors for services such as building, cleaning, maintenance, refurbishment or electrical and mechanical work.
