Salt Separation Services Ltd is one of the latest group of successful companies to join a leading edge scheme, designed to help industry improve its safety record.

Salt Separation Services Ltd recently received accreditation from SAFEcontractor, a programme which recognises very high standards of health and safety practise amongst UK contractors.

The company’s application for SAFEcontractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business. 

SAFEcontractor accreditation is expected to enhance the company’s ability to attract new contracts and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by its insurers when the company liability policy is up for renewal.

Under the SAFEcontractor system, businesses undergo a vetting process, which examines health and safety procedures and their tract 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 www.safecontactor.com.

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 f the scheme, they will engage only those who have received accreditation. 

Over one hundred and twenty 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.
