24th July 2018 By Clark Contracts Ltd
Construction, refurbishment and maintenance contractor, Clark Contracts, has been recognised by two industry leading health and safety authorities for its commitment to health and safety excellence.
The company has been awarded accreditation from Alcumus SafeContractor for the 15th year running. Alcumus SafeContractor is a leading third party accreditation scheme which recognises extremely rigorous standards in health and safety management amongst UK contractors.
Clark Contracts have also been awarded Construction Health and Safety (CHAS) for the 12th consecutive year, further confirming their dedication to health and safety across the company. CHAS is an established market leader for health and safety pre-qualification in the UK.
The company’s application for the accreditations was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business.
Gemma Archibald, Director of Alcumus SafeContractor said: "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. More companies need to understand the importance of adopting good risk management in the way that Clark Contracts has done. The firm’s high standard has set an example which hopefully will be followed by other companies within the sector. SafeContractor plays a vital role in supporting our clients in meeting their compliance needs, whilst working with their contractors as they progress through the accreditation process.”
Clark Contracts also received its third consecutive President’s Award from RoSPA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents) in 2018 following 12 consecutive gold medal awards.
