Top Safety Accreditation for APi Communications
APi Communications, has been accredited the prestigious SAFEcontractor certification status, demonstrating its high standards in Health and Safety.
SAFEcontractor is a nationwide scheme that independently assesses the health and safety competency of contractors and is recognised by many organisations who use the
SAFEcontractor certificate as a primary means to select contractors to work on their premises. With Health and Safety issues becoming increasingly important, SAFEcontractor is designed to encourage safer working practices on-site and is becoming the industry benchmark.
The company underwent an extensive vetting process, examining health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice.
Andy Pidsley, Director of APi Communications said "Health and Safety has always been a major priority for APi Communications. Accreditation to SAFEcontractor provides independent verification of this. We always take a thoroughly professional approach and this award demonstrates to our clients that we will operate in a safe way on-site and are professionally competent."
Companies that reach the required SAFEcontractor standard are added to a database of 'approved suppliers'. Prospective clients can then search the database via a website for information on a contractor's capabilities. Clients have a legal obligation to ensure that contractors operate in a safe way and SAFEcontractor offers them a simple way to access a list of approved contractors.
The SAFEcontractor certificate acts as a confirmation of competency and a reassurance to clients that the health and safety practices of a contractor have been properly assessed.
