Solinear is proud to announce that, once again, we have been awarded a CHAS (SSIP) Premium Plus certificate of accreditation.
What is CHAS?
The Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme (CHAS) is a highly respected scheme promoting the benefits of excellent health and safety practises and awareness within industries and business. The CHAS certification/certificate for accreditation is intended for consultants and contractors who work with private and public sector organisations.
How does CHAS help businesses like Solinear?
The objective of CHAS certification is to aid purchasers as well as contractors in the process of health and safety competence assessment – making it straightforward for potential clients to gain an insight into a company’s working standards, with regards to health and safety; An aspect of the company that Solinear takes extremely seriously.
CHAS also guides contractors through any shortcomings in safety management, thereby helping them to improve in this area. This commitment to consistent improvement of standards can be very attractive to potential clients and consequently Solinear will always endeavour to not only maintain but exceed expectations of standards.
Having CHAS certification/accreditation can facilitate the gaining of new business and has proved to be invaluable to Solinear’s tender process; Some purchasers may require contractors to be CHAS certified/accredited before allowing a tender submission – subsequently requesting a copy of the CHAS certification as evidence of suitability to carry out works. CHAS also minimises the lengthy process of contractor assessment regarding health and safety standards therefore if a client needs to promptly source a contractor, sifting through reams of questionnaire submissions will not be an attractive prospect. Requesting CHAS certifications can save valuable time, as a company with CHAS accreditation will already adhere to many requirements the client has, unquestionably in terms of health and safety.
Solinear’s commitment to CHAS
Solinear is CHAS assessed annually to maintain this accreditation, ensuring that we sustain, and indeed exceed, the level of professionalism we are renowned for and, consequently, expected of us year-on-year.
